Although I didn't need the instructions, I found they were created in a way that could help the worst "welder" (one who creates sparks and welds wires instead of fixing electrical problems) install these without an issue. Drilled a hole in the "dash" for the switch, drilled another small hole in the bars for the ground (not necessary, as you can ground it to an existing bolt), ran the wires, and installed the heater elements. The resistor for the "low" circuit can be a little bulky in tight spots, but was easy enough to hide on this snowblower. Fired up the engine and it works great! The true test will be this winter though ... My snowblower (Toro 828 Powershift) has a lighting coil, which is what I tapped into to power these grips. It produces a little over 14 VAC at full throttle, which is plenty, and shouldn't affect longevity at all for being too high. Never measured amp output of the coil, because if it can power just one light, it can power these grips. Probably wouldn't handle both these grips plus a light (don't have, or need one) just judging by the output wire size from the lighting coil (about 18 AWG). I have this same style heater on my ATV hooked to a controller that allows 5-way temperature adjustment, plus the ability to power 3 other accessories the same way. I prefer this peel-n-stick style over the ones that come molded one-piece, so that I can keep whatever soft grips I have without having to resort to the hard plastic of the other style. With these you can keep your existing grips. A tip for those who fight with removing rubber grips from motorcycles, ATV's, snowblowers, or snowmobiles - use a screwdriver first to break the glue bond, then insert an air nozzle to blast the grip with compressed air. Block that little hole in the back of the grip with your thumb. Slides right off like magic .. most of the time. Either way it's easier than what you were doing before! Review: Ok - Bought these a year ago and they work great. Bought 2 more for another atv and on one of the heater grips the soldered wire came off. Good thing I only needed one. ## Features - Heat levels: Hi and low - Mounting type: Adhesive - Thumb warmer included: No - Fits on: ATV, Snowmobile - Position: Right and left ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002OP5YDM | | Best Sellers Rank | #357,462 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #331 in Powersports Handlebar Accessories | | Brand | Kimpex | | Brand Name | Kimpex | | Color | black | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | ATV, Cruiser/Touring, Dirt Bike, Street Bike, UTV | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 226 Reviews | | Included Components | Kimpex 12-170 | | Item Type Name | HANDLEBAR_GRIP | | Item Weight | 0.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Kimpex | | Manufacturer Part Number | 12-170 | | Material | Not specified | | Material Type | Not specified | | Model Number | 12-170 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Size | 4 inches depth | | UPC | 779422146282 077942214628 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | ATV, Cruiser/Touring, Dirt Bike, Street Bike, UTV | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kimpex - **Color:** black - **Item Weight:** 0.2 Pounds - **Size:** 4 inches depth - **Vehicle Service Type:** ATV, Cruiser/Touring, Dirt Bike, Street Bike, UTV ## Images ![30W Handlebar Grip Heater Kit 12-170 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61npTzkE0eL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works mint! *by S***E on August 15, 2013* Just finally got around to installing this on my snowblower, as a pre-emptive strike against the coming winter cold.

Bought 2 more for another atv and on one of the heater grips the soldered wire came off. Good thing I only needed one. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, easy to install. *by P***O on December 13, 2019* Easy to install and works well. The self stick warming units worked well and it was easy to wire. Had a little trouble taking the existing handle bar ends off and then back on, but that was expected. Installed them on my ATV and they worked well. Generally high is too high for long, but it is a quick warm up, then goes to low. Even low needs to be cut off and on, but I was wearing thin gloves for hunting. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kimpex 30W Handlebar Grip Heater Kit 12-170 - Scott Sports 233926-0001 Black Radial Full Waffle ATV Grips Medium --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/10468354-30w-handlebar-grip-heater-kit-12-170](https://www.desertcart.is/products/10468354-30w-handlebar-grip-heater-kit-12-170) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-06-24*
