Gas door for rt seat
Hi Spyder riders, I am looking at putting a gas door in the seat of my 2016 rt. Just wandering how it is done, and also the size of door to use.

Mike installed mine: feed him enough good barbecue, and I'm sure that he'll make a house-call!

How about a link, Mike. Searching ebay using item # doesn't work for me.

What is so difficult about posting a direct link to the item? I didn't think I was asking that much. And, I don't want a door in my seat but I'm sure I could handle the mod okay if I did.

I checked for another chrome one and that seller is out also.......Sorry if I'm computer illiterate, I'll work on those skills when I have some Free time - possibly in Jan. 2018
Hello BK, I didn't think anything ill of you, nor did I say anything derogatory. I'm sorry my suggestion that you post a link upset you so.
To post a link you just copy the url (the website link of the ebay page you're viewing) at the top of your browser window and paste it into the body of your message. Like this;

I'm seriously thinking of this mod also.
But I don't want a door with a lock. I don't need to carry around another damn key.
If it ain't broke, don't break it.

.. ..The door may have a lock ..... but you don't have to use it .... and it won't lock accidently .... just having will be a deterrent ..... Mike

GAS DOORS
If you go searching on E-bay or Amazon .... make sure you are buying a " billet alumin." door ... they also sell COVERS and they aren't always clear about that fact ..... Also look at ALL the pics as to how to mount them ....And Do NOT get a DOOR for a JEEP they are too large and have a funnel neck you would have to remove = PITA .... Mike

I can adjust to your point of view. It's a moot issue for me now. The bikes with the Corbins are gone. Both seats need to be "unlocked" for us to get gas. We don't ride with passengers or gear, so it's only us that have to get off when it's time for gas. I am back to safe, secure, and no gas door.
We have a beautiful sunny day today. Time to go for a ride, put on some miles, and re-test how we feel about no gas doors.
