Kubota RTV Mirrors, Operator Comfort and Cab Equipment Guide

Kubota RTV mirrors, headrests, radios and cab equipment can make a utility vehicle better suited to daily property, farm and worksite duties. Documented accessories include ROPS-mounted mirrors, door-mounted mirror pairs, interior rear-view mirrors, headrest assemblies, grab handles, cab heaters, audio systems and storage organizers. However, the correct equipment depends on the vehicle and its cab configuration.kubotausa+1

An open-station RTV needs a different mirror application from a vehicle with accessory doors. A headrest may require a separate stay kit or supporting cargo screen. A roof-mounted radio can depend on a particular roof and wiring harness. Buying the visible accessory without its supporting components can leave an incomplete installation.kubotausa+1

This guide covers documented current and legacy equipment, explains important compatibility restrictions and provides tables for identifying parts before ordering.

The focus is North American Kubota accessory information. Legacy part numbers are research references, not guarantees of present availability. Confirm the full model designation, serial information, installed equipment and current application before purchase.

Storage ROPS organizer, door pockets and underhood boxes Secure fit without obstructing controls
Instruments and alerts Speedometers and reverse alarms Model-specific electrical application
Lighting Front and rear worklights Correct roof, brackets, harnesses and switches
Parked-vehicle protection Storage covers Correct vehicle and enclosure dimensions

These categories are documented in Kubota’s accessory brochures and current package information. They should not be interpreted as standard equipment on every RTV.kubotausa+2

Identify the Vehicle and Cab Configuration First

Before selecting accessories, establish whether the RTV is:

  • Open station with its original protective structure.

  • Fitted with a Kubota modular enclosure.

  • Fitted with an aftermarket enclosure.

  • A factory-cab model.

  • Modified with mixed or replacement components.

Kubota separates ROPS-mounted and cab-mounted mirror applications, and its brochures identify different roof and electrical requirements for audio, heating and lighting.kubotausa+1

Record the full vehicle designation, serial information, cab manufacturer, roof reference and any existing accessory part numbers.

A broad description such as “Kubota RTV mirror” or “RTV cab radio” is not enough to confirm compatibility.

Kubota RTV Exterior Mirrors

Exterior mirrors are available in several mounting arrangements. The key distinction is where the mirror attaches, not simply the shape of its glass.

Kubota RTV Mirror Directory

Mirror Documented reference Source-listed application Important detail
ROPS-mounted side mirror 77700-V4358 Multiple smaller RTV, numeric RTV-X and Sidekick applications Sold individually in the documented systems
Cab-mounted side mirror 77700-V5059 RTV400 and X1100 applications in archived literature Sold individually; confirm the exact cab application
Cab side-mirror pair 77700-VC5076 Specified RTV-X900, RTV-X1120 and RTV-X1140 enclosure applications Left and right pair
Sidekick door-mounted mirror pair 77700-VP0815 RTV-XG850 Sidekick accessory cab Match the compatible door system
Adjustable breakaway side-view mirror 77700-10706 RTV-X900, RTV-X1120, RTV-X1140 and RTV-XG850 in archived literature Adjustable mounting for specified round-tube dimensions
Interior rear-view mirror 77700-VP0816 Documented Sidekick accessory system Convex mirror mounted to the ROPS

The references and packaging information come from manufacturer accessory literature and retained product listings. Confirm current applications rather than assuming every reference fits all years within a family.kubotausa+4

ROPS-Mounted Mirrors

The V4358 attaches to the approved protective-structure mounting arrangement rather than a cab door.

Kubota lists it across several accessory systems and states that the ROPS mirror is sold individually. Owners wanting mirrors on both sides should therefore confirm the quantity required rather than assuming a single order contains a pair.kubotausa+1

ROPS means rollover protective structure. Do not drill, weld or otherwise modify that structure simply to install an unverified mirror.

Cab- and Door-Mounted Mirrors

Cab-mounted mirrors depend on the enclosure.

The VC5076 and Sidekick VP0815 are documented as left-and-right pairs. By contrast, the V5059 is listed individually in archived applications.kubotausa+1

Check whether the mirror requires a particular door, bracket or mounting position. A mirror that appears suitable in a photograph may still interfere with a different enclosure’s door movement.

Adjustable Breakaway Mirrors

Kubota’s archived brochure describes 77700-10706 with:

  • Dual-axis breakaway movement.

  • Three-way adjustment.

  • An adjustable blind-spot mirror.

  • Anti-vibration features.

  • Left- or right-side installation.

  • Fitment for specified 1.25- to 2-inch round roll-cage tubes.cdnmedia.endeavorsuite

The stated tube range is not approval for every protective structure or mounting position. Use the permitted vehicle application and installation instructions.

Interior Rear-View Mirrors

The VP0816 is documented as a wide convex mirror mounting to the ROPS, suitable within the specified open-station or cab arrangement.kubotausa

What to Check Before Installation

Check Why it matters
Mounting application Confirms the mirror is designed for the structure
Windscreen clearance Avoids interference with opening panels or latches
Roof clearance Ensures the bracket fits the enclosure
Rearward view Establishes whether cab panels or cargo equipment obstruct visibility
Adjustment range Confirms the driver can use the mirror from the normal position
Secure mounting Prevents movement or loss of alignment

A mirror is an additional viewing aid, not a substitute for the vehicle’s approved operating and reversing procedures.

Use Kubota RTV Mirror Compatibility and Adjustment Guide for model-specific coverage.

Kubota RTV Headrests and Stay Kits

Headrests are another accessory category where the supporting parts matter.

Kubota’s brochures list headrests separately from their stays or brackets, with different arrangements for smaller legacy RTVs and the Sidekick.

Headrest Accessory Table

Accessory Documented reference Application context Required supporting equipment
Legacy smaller-RTV headrest K7501-99550 RTV400/RTV500 Correct headrest stay
Grey smaller-RTV stay K7311-99530 RTV400/RTV500 Specified rear cargo screen
Black smaller-RTV stay K7311-99580 RTV400/RTV500 Specified rear cargo screen
Grey rear cargo screen K7311-99540 RTV400/RTV500 Supports the documented stay arrangement
Black rear cargo screen K7311-99590 RTV400/RTV500 Supports the documented stay arrangement
Sidekick headrest K7811-99550 RTV-XG850 accessory system K7591-99540 stay kit
Sidekick headrest stay K7591-99540 RTV-XG850 accessory system Required for the listed headrest
Numeric RTV-X bracket reference V5230 in model-specific catalogue RTV-X900/RTV-X1120 reference Confirm the current application and full part number

The smaller-RTV supporting-screen requirement and Sidekick headrest/stay relationship are explicitly documented. The numeric RTV-X bracket also appears in Kubota’s model-specific useful-products catalogue.kubotausa+2

Headrests Are Sold Individually

The documented smaller-RTV and Sidekick headrests and stay kits are sold individually. Confirm the number required and the complete bill of materials for the intended installation.kubotausa+1

Avoid Unsupported Safety Claims

Kubota describes these accessories as providing head support or extra head support. That should not be expanded into a claim that an accessory headrest provides a particular crash-protection rating.

Fit the correct component using its approved instructions, and retain the vehicle’s required seat belts and protective equipment.

Grab Handles and Operator-Area Organization

Small accessories can be useful when they are correctly positioned and securely installed.

Handles, Pockets and Organizers

Accessory Documented reference Function Compatibility consideration
Soft Grip Handle 77700-V0834 Steel handle with rubber grip and heavy-duty strap Use the specified mounting arrangement
ROPS Storage Organizer 77700-V4384 Nine-pocket padded organizer for smaller legacy RTVs Must not obstruct access, controls or required visibility
Front accessory box K7311-99560 Underhood small-item storage on documented RTV400/RTV500 applications Model-specific space and mounting
Sidekick door storage Included in VP0810 door design Storage pocket and bottle holder Depends on the compatible door assembly
Work Gear Bag 77700-10694 Portable equipment organization in specified numeric RTV-X applications Requires suitable secure attachment

These are documented manufacturer accessories or features. They do not authorize carrying loose equipment where it can interfere with controls or occupant space.kubotausa+1

The V0834 handle should not be treated as a seat belt, passenger restraint or permission to ride in an unapproved position.

Kubota RTV Radios and Audio Equipment

Audio systems require careful identification because Kubota’s brochures use different product numbers across accessory generations.

A similar roof appearance does not establish that an older radio, newer speaker system and wiring harness are interchangeable.

Sidekick Premium Roof Audio

Kubota’s 2018 Sidekick brochure documents Premium Audio System 77700-VP0897. A later full-line brochure and current package information reference 77700-09070.kubotausa+2

Sidekick Audio Components

Component Documented reference Function or requirement
Premium Roof 77700-VP0801A Twin-sheet roof with connections for specified audio/electrical accessories
Earlier Premium Audio System 77700-VP0897 Jensen Bluetooth system with AM/FM, USB and auxiliary input
Later Premium Audio System reference 77700-09070 Listed in later accessory and package information
Antenna K7711-63160 Documented AM/FM antenna application
Accessory Wiring Harness 77700-V0881 Required supply harness for the documented roof audio system
Sport Roof VP0800 family Not compatible with the documented Premium Audio System

The earlier brochure lists two Jensen speakers with VP0897 and an optional antenna. The later full-line brochure lists speakers and an antenna with 77700-09070. Confirm the actual kit contents rather than combining the two descriptions.kubotausa+1

Sport Roof vs Premium Roof Compatibility

The Premium Audio System is explicitly listed as incompatible with the documented Sport Roof.kubotausa+1

Do not order a roof radio simply because a seller describes both products as “Sidekick accessories.” Verify the roof, audio reference, harness and current installation requirements together.

RTV-X1100C Cab Radio Options

Kubota’s archived numeric RTV-X accessory literature lists several heavy-duty radios for the X1100 application.

Radio Documented reference Listed features Important qualification
Heavy Duty AM/FM/WB Radio 77700-04753 AM/FM, seven-channel NOAA weather band, display and clock Confirm installation components
AM/FM/WB/USB/iPhone/iPod/SiriusXM-ready radio 77700-04754 Additional media connections Archived description excludes CD and Bluetooth
AM/FM/CD/USB/WB/Bluetooth radio 77700-04755 Bluetooth, USB device functions and SiriusXM-ready capability SiriusXM tuner and antenna are separate requirements

The brochure lists a microphone separately for the 04755 system. “SiriusXM ready” should not be described as meaning all required hardware or service is included.cdnmedia.endeavorsuite

These are legacy references. Check current replacements, connectors and installation requirements before buying a used unit.

RTV1100 Is Not the Same as RTV-X1100C

Do not transfer a radio or cab-accessory application between the earlier RTV1100 and later RTV-X1100C solely because both are enclosed diesel vehicles.

Use the complete vehicle identity and the correct factory-cab parts information.

Cab Heating and Operator Comfort

Cab heating belongs to the complete enclosure system.

Kubota documents accessory heaters for selected numeric RTV-X models and the Sidekick, but the supporting parts differ.

Heater and Supporting Equipment

Accessory Reference Documented application Main requirement
Numeric RTV-X heater 77700-VC5083A RTV-X900, RTV-X1120 and RTV-X1140 VC5080 multiple-accessory or VC5081 single-accessory harness
Sidekick heater 77700-V5247 Approved Sidekick enclosure Specified underhood and roof-sealing arrangement
Sidekick underhood seal 77700-VP0808 V5247 heater installation Part of the documented enclosure system
Sport Roof Seal Panel Kit 77700-VP0807 Sidekick with Sport Roof and heater Not compatible with Premium Roof

These dependencies are documented in Kubota’s accessory brochures.kubotausa+1

An accessory heater should not be described as air conditioning or assumed to provide factory-equivalent demisting. Use the actual product specification and approved enclosure arrangement.

For full coverage, see Kubota RTV Cab Enclosures, Doors and Sealing Guide and Kubota RTV Cab Heating and Ventilation Guide.

Instruments, Reverse Alarms and Operator Information

Legacy accessory literature includes model-specific speedometers and reversing alerts.

Instrument and Alert Directory

Accessory Reference Documented application Important point
Speedometer K7211-99650 RTV400 Model-specific kit
Speedometer K7311-99650 RTV500 Different application from RTV400
Backup beeper K7211-99640 RTV400 Electrical application must match
Backup beeper K7311-99640 RTV500 Separate model reference
Reverse alarm K7811-99640 Sidekick Documented reversing alert

The archived smaller-RTV speedometers display up to 30 mph. That is the instrument’s display range, not a statement that the vehicle is rated to travel at that speed.kubotausa+1

A reverse alarm does not replace checking the area and following the operator’s manual.

Worklights and Cab Visibility Equipment

Worklights can support task visibility, but the roof and wiring requirements must be checked.

Documented Lighting Systems

Accessory Application context Important dependency
Smaller-RTV front and rear worklights RTV400/RTV500 Particular kits require K7311-99390 canopy or ROPS and exclude other canopies
Smaller-RTV combined front/rear worklight V4339 system Requires the specified V4312 canopy or enclosure
Sidekick six-inch LED worklight VP0892 Mounting kit, harness and roof-specific supports
Numeric RTV-X VC-series worklights Compatible VC cab components VC5080 or VC5081 harness
RTV520 Crossroads LED lights Current package reference Model-specific front and rear kits

These restrictions are documented in Kubota’s brochure and package information. Some package lights are expressly described for off-road use.kubotausa+2

Lighting equipment, mirrors and indicators do not by themselves establish public-road legality.

Storage Covers for Current and Legacy RTVs

Storage covers are separate from operating enclosures.

Cover Documented reference Application in archived literature
Smaller-RTV cover 77700-V4381 RTV400/RTV500
Numeric RTV-X cover 77700-V4382 RTV-X900, RTV-X1120 and RTV-X1100
Convertible RTV-X cover 77700-V4383 RTV-X1140

Kubota describes model-specific covers with features such as elasticated hems, vents or UV protection, depending on the product.cdnmedia.endeavorsuite

Confirm that the cover suits the vehicle’s installed roof, cab and accessories. Do not assume a parked-storage cover is approved for transport or operation.

Planning a Practical Operator-Comfort Upgrade

Select equipment around an actual need rather than adding accessories indiscriminately.

Requirement Equipment to investigate First compatibility check
Better rearward viewing Exterior or interior mirror Open-station, cab or door mounting
Additional head support Headrest and stay Complete bracket/supporting structure
Approved additional handhold Soft-grip handle Correct mounting position
Small-item organization Organizer, box or door pocket Secure fit and control clearance
Cab audio Model-specific radio or roof system Roof, harness and full kit contents
Cold-weather comfort Approved heater and enclosure Complete cab and sealing requirements
Task lighting Correct front/rear light system Roof, mounts, wiring and permitted use
Reversing alert Model-specific alarm Approved electrical application

The equipment choices should follow the manufacturer’s installation requirements. A component that can physically be attached is not necessarily approved for that position or vehicle.kubotausa+1

Accessory Compatibility Checklist

Before ordering mirrors, headrests or cab equipment, confirm:

  1. Full vehicle model and serial information.

  2. Factory cab, modular enclosure or open-station configuration.

  3. Exact roof and door references.

  4. Complete accessory part number.

  5. Whether the item is sold individually or as a pair.

  6. Required stays, brackets, clamps or mounting kits.

  7. Electrical harness and switch requirements.

  8. Clearance around doors, panels and controls.

  9. Current kit contents and supersessions.

  10. Applicable installation instructions.

Do not drill, weld or modify the protective structure to make an unverified accessory fit.

Buying Used RTV Mirrors, Radios and Comfort Equipment

Used equipment should be identified as carefully as new parts.

Ask for clear photographs of labels, mounting points, connectors and included hardware.

Used accessory Questions to resolve
Mirror Is it a cab, door or ROPS application, and is the mount complete?
Headrest Are the correct stay and supporting components included?
Radio What is the exact reference, connector arrangement and installation requirement?
Roof audio Does it match the intended roof and wiring system?
Heater Are the controls and required supporting components present?
Organizer Can it be secured without obstruction?
Worklight Are the mount, switch and harness included?

An older component is not automatically interchangeable with a newer item using a similar marketing name. The two documented Sidekick audio references illustrate why exact identification matters.kubotausa+1

Kubota RTV Mirrors and Cab Equipment FAQs

Are Kubota RTV side mirrors sold in pairs?

It depends on the kit. Kubota documents V4358 ROPS mirrors as individual items, while VC5076 and VP0815 cab kits are listed as left-and-right pairs.kubotausa+2

Can a cab mirror be fitted to an open-station RTV?

Only if the specific application supports it. Cab, door and ROPS mirror mounts are different product arrangements; do not assume interchangeability.kubotausa+1

Does the Sidekick headrest need a separate bracket?

Yes. The documented K7811-99550 headrest requires the K7591-99540 stay kit. Both are sold individually.kubotausa

Do legacy RTV400 and RTV500 headrests need a cargo screen?

Kubota’s archived literature identifies the specified rear cargo screen as required for the documented headrest-stay installation. Confirm the complete model-specific arrangement.cdnmedia.endeavorsuite

Can the Sidekick Premium Audio System be installed in the Sport Roof?

The documented systems are explicitly incompatible with the Sport Roof. Use the approved Premium Roof and wiring arrangement.kubotausa+1

Are VP0897 and 77700-09070 the same audio kit?

They are different documented references appearing in different brochures. The reviewed information does not establish universal interchangeability. Confirm the actual replacement and installation application before ordering.kubotausa+1

Does a legacy RTV-X1100C radio include satellite-radio equipment?

Not necessarily. Kubota’s SiriusXM-ready description identifies a separate tuner and antenna requirement. Check the particular radio and kit contents.cdnmedia.endeavorsuite

Can a speedometer increase the RTV’s maximum speed?

No. A display range is not a vehicle performance rating. The smaller-RTV accessory speedometers are listed with a display up to 30 mph; that does not establish a permitted operating speed.cdnmedia.endeavorsuite

Are older cab-accessory references still available?

An archived catalogue entry does not guarantee supply. Confirm the current part number, supersession, complete contents and availability before buying.
