Thanks to the help of Ken Tompkins - we have the Spyder dealer list DONE for the Garmin.

What I have it a file that you can just drag and drop into your Garmin - and you will have all of the dealers at your fingertips.

...

Thanks to both of you. I installed it on my Zumo 660 last night and it works perfectly. I'm sure it was a lot of work, but you guys did a great job!

[Hobstopper]

Ditto, Thanks Firefly and Ken. I am glad this post got brought back, I had just got my Zumo and was on the site looking around and saw it, I now have it loaded.

[fastfraser]

[manoman14]

Just got the file loaded. Works great! Thank you for all the work. You guys rock!!!

Hi Firefly,

This may be a stupid question to you, but what's a Garmin? I'm not the sharpest knife in the computer world so I could use a little education. I would likke to send my SealFloorboard to Can Am dealers accross he US. Is what you are offering the way to do it? I'm a new SpiderLovers sponsor and want to spread the news. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Garmin is a GPS manufacturer. The file / info talked about in this thread is downloaded to a Garmin GPS so a person can easily navigate to a Spyder dealership if they are traveling in an unfamiliar area.

Brian summed it up pretty well--- the Garmin is a GPS device that many of us use to find our way. The files that Ken and I worked on have all the dealers so you can have their locations ready to go should you have any problems while on the road.

For a list of dealers in PDF format you can get one here:

really really awesome firefly!

It was a joint effort with Ken Tompkins out here.......

We have not updated it since the original, but then again I just checked the BRP site and they have not updated their dealer list PDF lately.

.....and may all your travels be safe and under fair skies.

I'm new to this forum and the world of Spyderdom. As a matter of fact my RT-S SE5 has not been delivered yet but I have been promised by J & J Sales in Huron, OH that I have one coming after being screwed out of one by my local dealer. Hopefully by next week.
Downloaded and installed perfectly on my Zumo 450. Hopefully the GPS install on the RT-S will go as smoothly.

Very cool Firefly! Thanks.

Thanks to the help of Ken Tompkins - we have the Spyder dealer list DONE for the Garmin.

What I have it a file that you can just drag and drop into your Garmin - and you will have all of the dealers at your fingertips.

I'll post some screen shots and 'how to's' later on tonight.

PM me with your email address and I can send it .

Works great.

Thanks again to Ken for doing much of the hard work on this!

The File I have is "Spyder Dealers 07-29-09.gpi".

This is how it works on my Garmin 550 - should be similar for all Garmin units:


To install :

1. Plug Garmin into computer via USB
2. Find Folder(on Garmin unit) "Garmin\POI"
3. Drag and drop "Spyder Dealers 07-29-09.gpi" file into that folder.

That's it!

To access them on your Garmin:

1. Select "Where To"
2. Scroll down and select "Extras"
3. Select "Custom POIs

That's it!

This will list the nearest 52 Spyder dealers to your current location.

You can also select "Spell" to search for specific dealers.

You can also find dealers near other cities:

1. Select "Where To"
2. Select "Near" at the bottom of the screen.
3. Select "Different City"
4. Type City Name in
5. Scroll down and select "Extras"
6. Select "Custom POIs

This will list the closest 52 dealers to the city you selected in Step #3.

If there is a way I can post this file out here for downloading - I will - otherwise just PM me your email and I'll send away!
