A net OSR is part of the base configuration for the HPX, XUV heavy-duty??(625i, 825i, 855D), and mid-duty (550, 550 S4)??models. Stylized poly doors can be ordered in lieu of nets for certain models. The nets allow for easy one-handed operation, provide great visibility and allow for accessible ingress and egress from the utility vehicle. The stylized poly doors feature automotive style handles, color-matched panels, and a 90 degree opening for easy entry and exit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Warn??
