Let $X_{j}$ be elements of $SL(n, \mathbb{C})$ with entries ${X_{j}^{k,l}}${X_{j}^{k,l}}$.
Express the polynomial $P: SL(n,\mathbb{C})^N \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ as a polynomial $Q: \mathbb{C}^{n \cdot N} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ in variables ${X_{j}^{k,l}}$
Similar express the polynomial $$ Q''(X_1, \cdots, X_n) $$ $$= \left( det(X_1) - 1 \right)\left( det(X_1)det(X_2) - 1 = \right) prod\limits_{i=1}^N \cdots\left( det(X_1)det(X_2) left( \cdots det(X_N) det(X_i) -1 \right)$$ in variables ${X_{j}^{k,l}}$.
You can then apply the well-known result for $\mathbb{C}^{N \cdot n}$ n^2}$ to $Q' \cdot Q''$, and get what you want.
Edit due the comment: Note that we have both $$\{ Q' Q'' = 0 \} \subset \mathbb{C}^{N \cdot n^2}$$ is a connected subset, and that it is really a subset of $SL_n(\mathbb{C})^N$ $$\{ Q' Q'' = 0 \} \subset \{ Q'' =0 \} = SL_n(\mathbb{C})^N.$$
I am not sure, what topology you are working in, but it holds in any topology, the result original results for $\mathbb{C}^N$ holds in;)
