Compatible carts

Only as Bolt's own compatibility search answers it for the EZ GO Express, which Bolt name as a model rather than by this trim — check yours before buying. — applies to E-Z-GO Express L6, E-Z-GO Express S2, E-Z-GO Express S4, E-Z-GO Express S6

Only as Bolt's own compatibility search answers it for the EZ GO RXV, which Bolt name as a model rather than by this trim — check yours before buying. — applies to E-Z-GO RXV (Fleet), E-Z-GO RXV 2

Sources do not establish: Tray fit and wiring as installed. Bolt's search answers by make and model; their kits ship with cart-specific harnesses, and which harness a particular cart takes is the kit's own question.
