That doesn't look the same as my Warn.

Basically, if you buy a plate made for the Poo and it doesn't have the holes for your particular winch, drill them. As long as it fits the quad, making the winch fit shouldn't be a problem.

Mine came with all the holes. What year is your polaris? I think I have a mount for the older polaris. The same model as kendo.
