No, the RZR-14-SW does not include a grille. You can purchase an aftermarket grille for protection.

MAKE SURE TO READ THIS

Installation of this enclosure will delete the factory supplied glove box.

If the RZR-14-SW subwoofer enclosure is being installed along with the RZR-14-FS kick panel speaker pods, the subwoofer must be installed first.

The Quick Install Port Seal cap allows the enclosure to be used as a sealed system. For maximum bass, we recommend removing the cap for normal operation but keeping it in the vehicle. In the event of a deep water or submersion situation, the cap can quickly be reinstalled to prevent water penetration into the enclosure.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Whenever working on the vehicle, it is recommended to disconnect the battery prior to starting work. Failure to do so may lead to a risk of electric shock or equipment damage.

When connecting power and ground wires ensure that the red power wire is fused at the point where it is connected to the vehicle's battery. Failure to do so can result in damage to the vehicle if a short circuit develops between the vehicle connection point and the product.
