6 to 8 inches due on Monday. I will finally get to take the grand daughter out for a real ride in the snowcoach!!! We pulled it around with the Ranger a few times due to light snowfalls, but this is what she has waited for!!! She is my best enjoyment in life, and loves to snowmobile!!! What more could I ask for.
Grandaughter/Snow coach= Real Enjoyment!!!

We will sure try. Somewhat disappointing in the snow depth as I look outside this AM. Imagine that, eh??? We have only had 1 decent snowfall this season. That was in late November. Her heart was set on this snow!!!

Looks like she had a great time. My kids love their snowoach. We've had it for 2 years now, and I think it's one of the best additions I bought.
I noticed you didn't have your tail lights hooked up. Are you just planning riding around your house and not need them or just haven't gotten to it yet?

We have not left the farm with it as yet. With the LED lights on the newer sleds, the wiring is so small that I have not figured out the best way to hard wire it. Will switch to a LED stop/tail light on the coach, and may use a remote system of some kind.

Sorry, my last week has been busy. And this is the first I've had time to get back on the site.
Anyways, I can take a picture of what I made for a plug and play wiring harness. Best part is no cutting of wires on your sled. Basically I figured out what moly connection were used on my sled (Arctic Cat ZR 9000) and just made my own harness, unplugged the tail light and plugged the harness in. It's all waterproof and looks factory.
One other thing be careful with LED light in the snow coach. My rear tail light collects a lot of snow dust with the incandescent light in it, but some does melt off due to the heat of the light. With an LED you have no heat therefore the snow can't melt. I had a 2000 MXZ 700 but I replaced the rear tail light with an LED and my buddies would complain that the lights either bright as could be or they couldn't see it due to snow. This summer I may put more rear tail lights on just so it's more visible visible.

Where did you plug in??? The wiring is so small (22ga?) for the LED tail/stop lights due to the low current draw(low heat) of them, that it may be too small for the incandescent tail/stop light on the coach. Thus I need to find a different source. Remote will eliminate the need of wiring harness.

I don't think my taillight wires were that small. I will look tonight and get some pictures. But I plugged in right on the back of my sleds LED taillight. Basically I made a Tee harness, that connects to the sleds wiring plug to the plug on the back of the LED taillight then it Tees off with a flat 3 pin trailer connector.
By the way what sled do you have?

I have 2 Doos that I will use to pull the coach. The older one with incandescent tail/stop light has heavier ga. wiring. The newer Doos with LED stop/tail light have the smaller ga. wiring. Your method is what I will be able to do for the 07 sled. LED lighting use very little current as to compared to incandescent bulbs, thus the small ga. wiring. The same thing you said about the tail light covered with snow issue. Incandescent using more current/energy = heat. I could not find a 3 pin connector at any of the auto parts stores. All were 4 pin, stop/turn/brake. The coach has the old 3 pin, stop/tail light. Were did you find a 3 pin at??? Thanks lotsfire!!!
