Built for work. Ready for the trail.
Features and Benefits
- Built for the Prowler 500 — engineered specifically for the 2017–2022 Prowler 500, and fits it whether your machine is badged Arctic Cat, Textron Off Road, or Tracker Off Road 500S
- Tilts open, vented, or closed in seconds — half when it's hot and dusty, full when it's cold and wet, without swapping windshields
- Cushioned in the down position — foam bumpers protect the surface and prevent rattle wherever the tilting section rests
- Shaped to shed water — the top edge bends inward under a soft top or no top so your top lays cleanly over it, outward under a hard top for easier clearance
- Center support with quick release — a metal support steadies the tilting section in the up position, with a wing nut so you can drop the windshield without tools
- Secure clamp and bracket mount — rubber-sleeved clamps wrap the roll bar uprights and dash brackets fasten to your existing dash fittings, with nylon straps securing the tilting section for a tight, rattle-free fit
- Fits most setups right out of the box — sized to clear standard roof heights and roll bars. Need a different height? We can custom down-size the tilting section to your exact spec at no additional cost
- No drilling or cutting required — installs using pre-drilled holes and your UTV's existing dash fittings, with no permanent modifications to your rig
- Designed to tow windshield-down — reduces road debris abuse and wind drag on your trailer
- Made in Wisconsin, USA — the TerraRider team focuses on accurate fitment and quality construction, and is available to help verify your machine before you order
Which Durability Level Is Right for You?
Every TerraRider windshield is made from UV-resistant, impact-resistant polycarbonate. The difference between levels is the surface coating and the thickness.
| Durability Level | Material | What You Get | Best For | Part # |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Classic Dependable everyday protection |
3/16" polycarbonate | Reliable protection from wind, debris, branches, and changing weather at our most economical price. | Property owners, farmers, and occasional riders who want dependable protection without paying for upgrades they don't need. | TK00411 (for hard top) TK00414 (for soft or no top) |
|
VisionGuard Clarity that lasts |
3/16" scratch-resistant polycarbonate | Same thickness as Classic, with an abrasion-resistant surface coating that stands up to scratching and surface wear — so it stays clearer and looks newer over the years. | Riders on dusty or wooded trails, and anyone who cleans their windshield often and wants it to stay clear. | TK00412 (for hard top) TK00415 (for soft or no top) |
|
TrailMax Maximum strength for demanding riders |
1/4" scratch-resistant polycarbonate | Thicker material with the same abrasion-resistant coating as VisionGuard. The most rigid option in our lineup — less flex at speed, better durability in demanding conditions. | Higher-speed riders, hunters, and ranchers putting in hard hours where flex and durability matter most. | TK00413 (for hard top) TK00416 (for soft or no top) |

About Our Tilting Windshield
A TerraRider tilting windshield for your UTV, or side-by-side, is our most versatile style, built for riders who want it all. It tilts down toward the front, letting you switch between fully closed, vented, or fully open positions in seconds — no tools needed. Whether you're braving winter chill or cooling off mid-summer, it adapts instantly to your ride. If the standard height doesn't suit your setup, we can size the tilting section to your spec at no extra cost.
Arctic Cat introduced the Prowler 500 for 2017 as a mid-size, truck-inspired machine — a different machine from the HDX and the Pro despite the shared Prowler name. This one fits the 2017–2022 Prowler 500 whether your machine is badged Arctic Cat, Textron Off Road, or Tracker Off Road 500S.
Every panel is manufactured — not imported or reproduced — right here in Wisconsin, and supported by people who can help verify your fitment. At TerraRider, every windshield is built from premium polycarbonate for unbeatable strength and clarity, so you can ride with confidence, whatever your day brings — fence lines at sunup, gear hauled back from a hunt, a long day on the trail.
This listing covers the 2017–2022 Arctic Cat Prowler 500, the 2018–2019 Textron Off Road Prowler 500, and the 2020–2022 Tracker Off Road 500S.

Buy With Confidence
UTV body styles, roll cages, and cab configurations can vary between model years, making windshield selection confusing. Need help confirming fitment? Our team can review your year, make, model, measurements, or photos to help determine the correct windshield application before ordering.
Should you need a return or exchange, you may do so within 30 days, as long as the protective coating hasn't been peeled back further than needed to expose the mounting holes during install.
Cleaning and Warranty
Every TerraRider UTV windshield includes a two-year limited warranty covering yellowing, discoloring, or breaking due to manufacturer or material defects.
Never wipe a dry or dirty windshield — rinse away dirt and debris with clean water first, then use a microfiber cloth in long, straight swipes. Proper care is a condition of the warranty — full cleaning instructions and complete warranty terms are on our website.
