Installing Heated Grips on an Ariens Deluxe 28 snowblower

[@bluesriderDF]

FOLLOW UP: The grips did not adhere well and came loose over winter. I removed the two plastic end plugs, Which allowed the grips to be pushed forward a little more to line up with the holes in the handle bars. I then attached them using JB Weld ExtremeHeat, and I put some stainless steel screws through the holes. They aren't going anywhere now!

If you want to save a few bucks ( those are over $100) you can get grip heaters. They are thin plastic elements that wrap around the bare handlebars and the grips slide back over them. Then you just wire them to the headlight curcuit with an inline switch. Some like mine have high and low and believe me, low is warm enough. High will help them heat up faster but will probably be too hot.

Nice job Honey!

Thanks for the video, just wondering if the set screws were included in the kit ? The screws go into the holes on top of the grips and screw into the handle bars, I don't think you would need the epoxy if the screws were used.

They are not included, and I will probably get some.

It takes about an hour to do my driveway, Sometimes I am out there in the bitter cold and it's still coming down, and my hands are frozen. 🥶 This was an overdue upgrade!
