he EZGO cooler kit gives your RXV a built-in, insulated storage solution designed by the factory engineers who built your cart. Riders show up to community events, neighborhood runs, and property hauls without a secure place to keep drinks.
Coolers slide around on the floorboard and land on the ground. Loose containers rattle against the dash and spill on every turn. That kind of frustration wears on you fast, especially on a cart you’ve invested in.
E-Z-GO built the RXV as a precision vehicle. What you store on it deserves the same engineering standard.
The three problems owners run into most often:
- Generic aftermarket coolers that don’t mount cleanly and shift while moving.
- No dedicated storage position on the cart, leaving beverages in the footwell or seat.
- Mismatched brackets and hardware that require drilling or modifications to make them fit.
Carts & Parts is an authorized E-Z-GO dealer stocking OEM accessories built to factory spec. The EZGO cooler kit guide below covers fitment, installation, and the accessories that pair with it best.
Key Takeways
What is the OEM EZGO RXV Cooler Kit PN# 689255?
The OEM EZGO RXV Cooler Kit (PN# 689255) is a factory-engineered, insulated beverage storage unit designed to mount directly to the EZGO Freedom RXV front storage area without drilling or aftermarket brackets. The kit ships with all mounting hardware and installs using existing vehicle attachment points. Factory engineering means the insulated compartment dimensions, bracket angles, and hardware tolerances match the RXV body exactly.
What EZGO models does the RXV Cooler Kit fit?
The PN# 689255 RXV Cooler Kit is designed specifically for the EZGO Freedom RXV platform. Owners of the EZGO TXT or Liberty models should reference the OEM EZGO Golf Cart Beverage Cooler (Part #658503), which is designed for broader model compatibility. Always match part numbers to your specific cart platform before ordering to ensure hardware alignment.
How does the EZGO RXV Cooler Kit install?
The PN# 689255 EZGO RXV Cooler Kit mounts to the front-facing storage panel using the hardware included in the kit. No drilling is required. The bracket system uses existing mounting points on the RXV frame, and installation typically takes under 30 minutes with standard hand tools. Confirming the mounting surface is clean and free of debris before installation ensures a secure fit.
What is the difference between the RXV Cooler Kit and the EZGO Beverage Cooler Part
The PN# 689255 RXV Cooler Kit is a platform-specific kit engineered for the Freedom RXV with dedicated mounting hardware. The OEM EZGO Golf Cart Beverage Cooler (Part #658503) is a standalone cooler unit with broader compatibility across EZGO models. The cooler kit includes the insulated compartment and all required mounting components as a complete system, while Part #658503 functions as a universal-style beverage cooler.
How Does the EZGO RXV Cooler Kit Work?
The OEM EZGO RXV Cooler Kit (PN# 689255) integrates directly into the Freedom RXV front storage area using factory-engineered mounting hardware and an insulated compartment sized to the vehicle platform. Understanding the system helps owners choose the right option before ordering and prepares them for a straightforward installation.
What Does the Cooler Kit Include?
The PN# 689255 kit ships as a complete system from E-Z-GO. The insulated compartment holds beverages securely during travel, and the included bracket hardware fastens to existing mounting points on the RXV body. No separate hardware runs are necessary. Everything required for a clean, no-drill installation arrives in the box.
What RXV Models Is the Cooler Kit Compatible With?
The PN# 689255 Cooler Kit is built for the EZGO Freedom RXV platform. Owners should confirm their cart is the RXV body style before ordering. The EZGO TXT, Liberty, and Express models use different front storage configurations and require different accessory part numbers.
Why Are EZGO RXV Owners Choosing OEM Cooler Kits?
OEM accessories from E-Z-GO deliver factory-engineered fitment that aftermarket products cannot replicate, because the mounting hardware, insulated compartment dimensions, and bracket geometry are all designed alongside the RXV platform itself. Owners who have tried generic cooler mounts understand the difference between something that almost fits and something that locks in perfectly.
At Carts & Parts, every accessory is backed by the team’s expertise as an authorized E-Z-GO dealer. The experience customers have when ordering speaks for itself.
When Scott Reagan ordered a part for his cart, the experience changed his expectations for what good service looks like:
“Much to my surprise, I get a text message asking how they could help within minutes of my request. What was obviously a ‘real’ person answered my shipping question, then informed me that the part was in stock and could ship out the next morning. Here I am, 3 days later, on Wednesday and I find the part on my doorstep. 3 days after the order and my free shipping package is actually on my doorstep!!! To top it all off, after a quick install of the part, my cart is back on the road!! As a retired senior, I had almost forgotten that this is how customer service used to be.”

How Do You Choose the Right EZGO Cooler for Your Cart?
Choosing the right cooler accessory comes down to three factors: cart platform, mounting preference, and how you use your cart day to day. Follow these steps to land on the right product before placing an order.
- Confirm your model. Identify whether you own an EZGO RXV, TXT, Liberty, or other platform. The PN# 689255 is specific to the RXV body style.
- Decide between the kit and the standalone cooler. The OEM EZGO RXV Cooler Kit (PN# 689255) is a complete mounting system. The OEM EZGO Golf Cart Beverage Cooler (Part #658503) is a standalone unit suited for owners who want flexibility across models.
- Check your mounting location. The RXV Cooler Kit mounts to the front storage panel. Make sure your front panel area is unobstructed before ordering.
- Order OEM to avoid fitment issues. Factory parts ship with the correct hardware and confirm compatibility with your cart’s existing attachment points.
What Makes the OEM EZGO RXV Cooler Kit (PN# 689255) Worth It?
The OEM EZGO RXV Cooler Kit (PN# 689255) earns its place on the RXV because every component — the insulated compartment, the bracket system, and the mounting hardware — is engineered to the same tolerances as the vehicle itself. No aftermarket product can claim factory fitment, because aftermarket products are built to approximations of the vehicle’s dimensions, not the actual specification.
How Does the Cooler Kit Mount to the RXV?
Installation follows a clean, no-drill process using the RXV‘s existing front storage panel attachment points. Here is the sequence:
- Remove any existing items stored in the front compartment area.
- Position the cooler bracket against the front storage panel mounting surface.
- Thread the included hardware through the bracket and into the existing attachment points.
- Torque fasteners to hand-tight, then a quarter-turn with a wrench.
- Set the insulated cooler compartment into the bracket and confirm it seats fully.
- Check for lateral movement. A properly installed kit has no side-to-side play.
⚠️ Important: Always match the part number to your specific model year and body style before ordering. The PN# 689255 is engineered for the EZGO Freedom RXV platform. Installing a mismatched cooler kit bracket on a different platform can result in poor fitment and potential hardware loosening over time.

How Does the OEM EZGO Golf Cart Beverage Cooler (Part #658503) Compare?
The OEM EZGO Golf Cart Beverage Cooler (Part #658503) serves a different purpose than the RXV Cooler Kit. Where PN# 689255 is a complete mounting system purpose-built for the RXV, Part #658503 is a standalone beverage cooler with broader compatibility for owners who need a solution that isn’t platform-locked.
Owners of the EZGO TXT or EZGO Liberty who want a cooler solution should start with Part #658503, not PN# 689255. Forcing a platform-specific kit onto an incompatible model creates fitment problems that OEM engineering is specifically designed to avoid.
💡 Tip: If you own more than one EZGO model, the OEM EZGO Golf Cart Beverage Cooler (Part #658503) offers the flexibility to move between carts. The PN# 689255 is the right call when you want permanent, integrated storage on a dedicated RXV.
What Other EZGO RXV Accessories Pair Well With the Cooler Kit?
A well-equipped EZGO RXV builds outward from the core driving experience, and the cooler kit is one piece of a larger accessories picture. Two accessories pair naturally with the PN# 689255 for owners who want to complete their RXV setup.
The OEM EZGO Golf Cart RXV Nerf Bar Kit (2024-2026) — PN# 10010780 adds step protection along the sides of the RXV, making entry and exit safer for passengers on uneven terrain. Nerf bars are especially practical for carts running property routes, parade routes, or community paths where passengers step on and off frequently. The 2024-2026 RXV fitment ensures the bar kit mounts to the updated frame geometry on current-generation models.
The OEM EZGO Golf Cart GFI Charger Cord Kit — Part #652608 is the DPI Leviton 5-Meter charging cord that keeps your RXV powered and ready. A proper GFI charging cord is essential for carts stored in garages or outdoor enclosures where ground fault protection matters. Charging reliability is the foundation of every ride, and using the OEM cord ensures the connection specifications match what E-Z-GO engineers specified for the vehicle’s charging system.
For a complete look at the full accessory ecosystem available for your EZGO, the EZGO Golf Cart Accessories Hub covers every category in detail.
What Happens When You Skip a Proper Golf Cart Cooler Setup?
Riding without a secured, insulated storage solution creates problems that compound over time. Most owners learn this the hard way after a single bad ride.
- Loose containers cause interior damage. Bottles and cans roll into control panels, scratch seat trim, and leave moisture stains on upholstery that are difficult to remove.
- Aftermarket brackets that don’t fit void fitment guarantees. Non-OEM hardware drilled into an RXV body can compromise the structural integrity of the mounting surface and create rust points around drilled areas.
- No cooling means warm drinks on every trip. Without insulation, beverages reach ambient temperature quickly, especially in summer when cart usage peaks during outdoor events and community activities.
- Long-term costs outpace the investment. Replacing damaged trim, re-sealing drilled holes, and buying replacement hardware costs significantly more than the original OEM kit price.
The Complete EZGO Golf Cart Parts Guide covers the broader ecosystem of OEM parts that protect your investment across every system on the cart.
What Does a Well-Equipped EZGO RXV Look Like?
A properly outfitted EZGO RXV with OEM accessories runs cleaner, lasts longer, and serves every use case more reliably than a cart patched together with aftermarket substitutes. The difference shows up on every ride.
