^ I wanted to quote @Dragoon’s post (particularly the part that’s in bold green italics!) because I thought I was losing my mind…

I have NO idea why, in Gawd’s name, would Polaris make a front camera standard in the Ultimate…but not include it in the higher trim model Northstar. It’s honestly mind boggling…

But not as mind boggling as trying to get a straight (as in directly from Polaris) answer about which part number (front) camera I need to add to my ADV Northstar.

On the Polaris website there is no such part number. There’s several front camera part numbers including 4019855 and 4081063 that are listed on working with RZRs, Generals and Rangers with Ride Command…but it specifically states that they will NOT fit/work with the Xpedition…despite the fact that the Ultimate comes with one standard…?…!

Checking eBay for “Polaris XPedition front camera” I came up with this search result:

Pardon Our Interruption...

That has the older part number, 4019855.

Checking the feedback the first entry states:

Plugged right in to my 2025 Polaris Xpedition ADV Northstar. Works great.

Call me crazy but that would lead me to believe that if I plugged it right into my 2025 Polaris XPedition ADV Northstar it would work…great!

When I went to look for the corresponding wiring harness where it would plug in it’s literally zip tied down with a rubber plug cap right above when the camera plugs in.

Lot of nickel and diming going on here…like there’s no rear overhead cabin light…but they’ll happily sell you one for a hundy +. They must be taking marketing lessons from Hardley (sic)-Davidson…

I was rather surprised when I initially did a search and didn’t find this asked and answered previously which is why I started this new thread…
