    Default Garage Door Opener

    Hi I know I saw a thread on here where someone installed a momentary push button on their speaker cover and soldered wires to their remote door opener and velcroed it underneath the cover. Does or has someone done this and can they put up pics and directions on how to do it? Any help will be appreciated.

    I wired a spare garage door opener to the high beam on one of my Harley's Just pull up to the garage and flick hi beam to open the door. Trying to decide how to add one to the new Spyder.

    Default gdo

    there are many versions of this mod. the cheapest is the momentary switch wired to the button contacts on your remote. mine is under the large fuse box cover, under the trunk lid. the momentary button is up near the steering column. dig thru the mods pages. there will be several write-ups on it.
    it was fun while it lasted.

    I also installed this mod on my 2012 RT and my wife's 2010 RT and we both like them a lot.
    If you look under the "gallery" link and do a album search "Macca mods" that is where I got the idea.
    hope that helps.

    Default I use velcro, too.

    I attach my opener, with velcro, to the inside wall of my glovebox. Stays in place and doesn't get lost.
