On the iPhone you can set it to wake on touching the screen so you don’t have to pull it out to tap the wake/sleep button. It’s in the Accessibility settings. 👍🏼
Thank you! I did end up discovering that feature on my phone. 🤦♂️ haha thank you for commenting and watching!
For what it costs it should come with the holes in it. Matter of fact. For the 20k I spent on the sled. Shouldn’t be an add on. Thank for the good information
Hahaha I totally agree these sled prices are insane! Thanks for watching!
Great video, couldn’t figure out the wiring routing from manufacturers instructions. Thanks for the help!
Thank you for watching! Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot! I have thought to buy a Garmin GPS and to my Ski-Doo but with glove box extension I'll save a lot of money!
No problem! Thanks for watching. I wanted a GPS to make sure I didn’t get lost on a trip 90 miles into the backcountry and found out that Ski Doo had this option and thought “how perfect”. I use OnX Hunt for my GPS but I’ve heard good things about Gia too. I love having the security of knowing where I am at all times.
Great vid man. It’s nice to see a fellow Alaskan on here!
Hey! Thanks for the love! I’ve been so busy over the last year I haven’t been able to make videos. Things are coming along and more videos will be out this winter. Enjoy your new glovebox and thanks for watching!
Great video. Just got an Expedition SE 900T and was pissed that there was no 12V or USB on it... was literally looking at the cowling in the garage tonight after my ride on how to add a 12V power supply. Think this might be a “get the dealer to add it” on my post-season tune up.
It’s a great upgrade for sure!
? How does your phone charge?. I didn’t exactly understand that. Is there something that connects to your phone? Like how you usually Plug it in
Very helpful instructions, thanks you. I just wasn't sure about what you meant about extending the plugs from down below - did you buy those cables separately?
Everything came with the glovebox except the usb outlet that was sold separately. All the harnesses are with the each kit. It’s a little over whelming at first but they make it pretty idiot proof. Haha As for extending the plugs your not really extending them your just using a harness that Y’s at one end to make it longer so your harness from the glove box can plug into the machine side. I hope this helps! If you have further questions feel free to comment I’m always willing to help.
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
@@BTHAlaska Thanks!
Great video!
Great video! maybe show all the parts to begin with and the install of the phone itself as I still have a few questions.
What questions do you have? I will gladly try and help.
Pretty straight forward
Good video man. Dont even own a sled this new but loved watching it!
Thank you very much! Hopefully we get some snow and I can upload some riding videos.
What’s the part number for the wiring harness and plate
Sorry I’m just now seeing this. I’ll be honest I don’t have the part number for those specific parts. Hopefully you’ve figured it out by now. Good luck and thanks for watching!
Great video, just installed the extension cell holder and 12 volt outlet, ran the cable upto power supply from the machine, but I also put in a heated visor plug as well , do all these plugs inner connect with each other and the one plug from the machine supply 12 volts to everything?????
Thank you for watching! I’m glad it was helpful! Yep that’s is exactly how all those plugs work. I can’t wait for the season to start. I should have more how to’s and riding videos coming. Is there anything you’d like to see?
think I'm good for now !! 👍👍
@@bradfindlay4892 Awesome! Thanks again for watching!
I have one of these on my Renegade and I’ve never once plugged it in, why, because my Android in GPS mode for a full day uses 20% of the battery (5000 MaH). Apple needs to put vastly superior batteries. It’s a choice.
I agree 100%. I used to be an android guy but my job pays for my phone now so I get what I get. I’m just glad Ski Doo though of us iPhone users. 😂
My Iphone 11proo maxx fits like a 🧤 and works perfect as a navigation system,, but I´m curious if the phone can handle the vibration and moisture ovrr time😖. I´m afraid it can mess up the camera on the phone😵. I guess it’s only one way to find it out.......
I’ve had good luck so far with it no issues at all. I’ve had it it -15F and still no issues. My phone does come out with a fair bit of moisture but with a quick wipe down it’s dry.
Thanks
Any time! Thanks for watching and subscribing!!!! I will be putting more out as soon as the new sleds get here.
Am I able to charge my phone with just the glove box extension or do I need to purchase the duel usb charger as well?
Unfortunately you have to purchase the USB charger as well. Thanks for reaching out!
Dude, great video but a terrible job really showing the wiring harness connections... that's the most difficult and critical part and it was glossed over.
Sorry I’m an aircraft electronics technician so that kind of stuff is just second nature to me. If you have questions I would be glad to help.
Is that a low or Medium windshield? trying to decide what one to go with. I would like for the entire extension to be covered, but I don’t like a super tall windshield. Thank!
Thank you for watching!!! This is on my Expedition Xtreme with a low windshield you should be fine. I’m not a fan of tall windshields either. Good luck it’s a pretty easy install.
Great video 👍👌
Thanks for watching. I don’t know how I missed your comment by 8 months. 😅
I would’ve liked to have seen how you install the phone into the extension
Sorry, just watching your review video now lol
Check out this video I did czcams.com/video/TqDcAh1pKbg/video.html I addressed that. I don’t know why I didn’t show that originally. Thank you for watching!
Looks like you also had issues plugging the phone heating element inside the glove box in (8:18), any suggestions? I’ve tried multiple times now and feel like it should be this hard to snap together
Yeah I did have an issue. I wish I could be more help but I just messed with it until all of a sudden it went together nice and easy. It was a little frustrating and when I helped a buddy with his the plug went together without any issue. Sorry!
What year of skidoo does this work on I just bought a 2016 mxz and wondering if it will fit?
These are for the Rev Gen 4’s so 2017-current.
I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max it’s 6.7 inches, would it still fit?
Yep. My IPhone 13 pro max fits. It’s so nice having such a large screen to see where your going! If you have any other questions feel free to reach out. Good luck and thanks for watching!
I would just add to dielectric grease all the plugs.
That definitely wouldn’t hurt.
Did all of the wiring and pigtails come with the extension and USB kit ?
Yep you should get one harness with the extension and another for the USB outlet. It’s a little confusing at first but once you lay the wiring harnesses out it’s pretty easy to figure out how they connect to each other.
Why can’t the center covered hole be used instead of drilling a new hole to the left of t
If I remember correctly, If you used the middle hole you wouldn’t be able to reach the accessory plug on the snowmobile.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask and I'll respond ASAP. Thank you!
what do you use the extra 3M foam pieces for? There are two other foam pieces, any advice on those?
@@willgoodwin2709 Thanks for the question. The one piece that has different size cut outs is used to center your phone in the holder so it doesn’t slide or bounce around while riding. The other piece is used on the backside of the holder and is only needed if your phone is very thin and you need to sandwich the phone tighter in the holder again so it doesn’t bounce around. I hope that’s clear enough. Haha
I already have a 12 V plug-in in my glove Box and I just got my extension today It came with 2 harnesses do I still need to use the other harness that don't go in the glove Box.
@@marvinkane3325 If you have this glovebox extension that has the phone holder. Then yes you will need to use the other harness. We only have one accessory plug on the machine and Ski Doo’s solution is to just daisy chain all the accessories together. I hope I answered your question.
OK thanks I will see what wires I have when I get into it.
What phone are you using, just for a size reference? Also is there a provision within the phone holder to have it plugged in and charging while it's in there?
The phone is an IPhone 11 Pro Max and it still has a little room if you had a bigger phone. And yes there is a little cutout for a charging cable so you could have your phone plugged in while you’re riding. I hope this helps and thanks for watching! I have some more Ski Doo content coming so stay tuned for that.
Can't work with case on?
If it’s a thin case it can work.
is the phone charging while in that door dock position, or do you have to remove it and plug it into the glovebox usb port?
Yes you can charge the phone while it’s in the dock. There is a little slot that your charging cable fits through. It’s a perfect setup!
its hard to tell from the pics and videos i've seen - is the phone enclosed within something? want it to be protected from snow and ice...
Yes there is a clear plastic cover that A) protects the phone while riding and B) still allows you to use the phone while it’s in the mount. The back of the mount is heated to help keep your battery from dying. There is also a spot where you can plug a charging cable in to your phone while it’s in the mount. I love this mount!
@@BTHAlaska Thanks for the reply. I'm gonna pull the trigger on one for my new skandic swt 900ace.
@@a11en26 No problem! You won’t be disappointed. The extra storage is awesome and having my phone right in view for navigation is amazing.
Thank you for watching!

How did you route the pig tail from under the box?
It’s a real pain but there is a small gap next to the air box on the left side of the machine that leads under the glove box. I hope that makes sense.
Are you a big flock of seagulls fan?
Huh? 🤔
So your phone is exposed to the elements?
No there is a plastic cover over the front of it. It's way better off in this glovebox extension than in a pocket.
@@katiemilanowski7606 thanks that would make sense. Probably a pain in the ass if you make stops and need your phone often.
Thanks for helping! CZcams hasn’t been notifying me when I get comments.
I already have a dual USB on my 2023 how would that change the install?
Sorry for the delayed response sometimes I don’t get notifications for comments. There’s an accessory plug for the USB on the wiring harness for the glovebox. It’s all plug and play. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Easier to remove all hood 6 screws and slide plus loose hose near clutch
I didn’t know if that was going to be easier or not. Thanks!
What size phones does the extension take? Thank you!
I have the IPhone 11 Pro Max so one of the biggest phones available and it has some extra room if you had a bigger phone.
