Adapt random tracks from a Can-Am to fit my Yamaha Rhino UTV.
Stuff I used in the video:

Clear Plastic window film: I used 5mil/5guage/.005" which is sufficient but I would ideally go thicker to around 10mil. The commercially made rear window I bought is around 10-15mil. A thick clear window used on things like Jeep soft tops/convertible windows is around 30mil. You can buy 10 mil at most fabric shops or here are thicker options: https://amzn.to/3vxc8AZ

After Thoughts about the Video:
Doors: I would actually like shorter half doors. I feel too enclosed in the cab with both doors on. I like to stick my head out like a dog and enjoy the scenery/view what I'm driving over. The material I use is on the thinner side as well(just what I had laying around) so I would get slightly thicker material. I used 5mil/5guage/.005" which is sufficient but I would ideally go thicker to around 10mil. The commercially made rear window I bought is around 10-15mil. A thick clear window used on things like Jeep soft tops/convertible windows is around 30mil. You can buy 10 mil at most fabric shops or here are thicker options: https://amzn.to/3vxc8AZ
Heater: 1 issue is the humidity that is caused when you hit a snow drift and the snow melts on the radiator. This was easily remedied without a full enclosed cab. I had no overheat issues an the motor actually ran way cooler than it does in the summer.
Tracks: I had full intentions to 100% fabricate my own tracks. I have them 90% sketched and engineered. The frame work is the easy part and could likely be done sub $500 total in materials. The issue arrives when you wan to put rubber tracks on. Buying tracks sets you back around $600 per wheel! I had issues trying to find 3-4 identical old free snowmobiles to harvest them from. That's an entire can of works itself. So I set off to buy a cheap second hand set as new sets are going for nearly $7000. Every market is different and I kept loosing out on sub $1000 dollar deals on tracks. I ended up with these for $1500 after nearly a year of searching. That's less than my parts list to build them (around $2500-3000)
