Accessory rocker switch for auxiliary lights to fill empty position in panel
I know I saw the answer to this somewhere but now I can't find it.
I want to get a 3-position switch matching the rocker switches in the RT switch panel. Can someone provide me a quick link to the right ones on eBay or Amazon?
Also, what is involved in removing that panel holding the switches just below the handlebars, so that I can install and hook up the new switch?
Thanks.

Okay, I found it. https://www.banggood.com/
Now I've forgotten why you thought I should check it out.

Can anyone point me to the thread where this topic (rocker switches and installation) was discussed pretty well?
(This is one of the problems with folks either using a meaningless thread name, or changing the subject on a thread to something completely unrelated - hard to find the relevant info sometimes)

Here's a video by Can-Am Spyder Accessories showing an RT center console switch (actually in this case, a dual USB port) install
Thanks to Pegasus for pointing me in that direction.

After all I've read about this center console switch issue on the forum, I may just go with this small dimmer switch solution from TricLED and mount it somewhere other than the switch panel https://www.tricledusa.com/_p/prd1/4...-dimmer-switch

Auxiliary lighting switch eliminator
Pete,
I'm just gonna use the Denali 2.0 Switch Eliminator (since it also integrates with the Denali lights I'll be using) and always have the lights on full, but aimed down low enough to not be in other drivers eyes, is the point of your switch to allow the lights to be off even when the bike is running? I think they even have a relay that brightens/dims based on Hi or Low beam use.

I've been looking at that. Let me know how it works out.

I would rather that BRP put a power receptacle in that middle position, instead of in the frunk. It wouldn't cost much to re-route the wiring from the frunk to the cockpit.
For that matter, why is there a power receptacle in the frunk in the first place? (Talking about RT's)
