    I'm not looking for the "Customer Accessory Outlet. I found those. They require the engine to be running! I want power as soon as you turn the key.

On the 2016, there were 3 power connections & aux sound input. Not on the '17...

    Are you aware that as soon as you turn on the key, you can hit the mode button and your Spyder will start. No need to wait for the computer to boot up like on the older Spyders. Try it, you'll like it.

    BTW, this is an old post. Just FYI.

    My '16 starting sequence -> press brake -> key on -> press start -> press mode. Instant start & go before the welcome screen goes away.
