    Default Middle Dash switch

    Does anyone have any pictures or instruction on how to put a switch in the blank middle spot between the shock and handgrip switches on an RT?

    I may have pictures at home, but it isn't terribly difficult. The only trick is that there is a round hole under the rectangle cover. If you take off one of the main side body panels and pop the switch blank out you can fish wires without having to disassemble much else. You just need to pick a switch and cut the hole to just the right size. I added some thin double stick tape/foam around it too to help act as a gasket.

    I'm installing that USB port soon. It requires removing a side panel so I can wire it to the battery.

    This is a middle "switch" that fits into the empty space between the rest of the switches of thr RT. It's called a carchet car and is available from J.T's. Spyder Store. I currently have one mounted on my 2012 Can Am Spyder RT-SE5. It looks like OEM, and provides two USB jacks.

    I just bought one fro J.T. and installed directly to the battery. I didn't really care that it was always hot though. Then I stumbled across a video by Pierre from Spyder TV.
