I think it would be neat to have a reverse alarm, does anyone sell one? My wife sometimes goes Beep - Beep - Beep, usually get a laugh.

most auto parts stores carry those. The installation may be tricky. They normally run off the backup lights which on the RS are the emergency flashers/turn signals. That would make it beep every time you hit a signal, so you would have to look for the dash signal R light.. Let us know if you do install one...!! :thumbup:

HAH! I've got a running gag going with that one. I park under the carport, behind the car, to keep the nightly dew off. When we need to use the car, I don't start the Rotax, instead I just push it back out of the way. To do that, I have to...
Turn key on.
Turn parking brake off.
Turn key back off.
...start pushing...
the Nanny-Alarm perfectly mimics a Beeper for the next 20 seconds.
To anyone within earshot I exclaim, "See! It's even got a back-up beeper!" ;)
I carefully time the push to end exactly when the alarm quits. :roflblack:

People not familiar with Spyders sometimes just stare when I back up, it's a hoot. Was asked just last weekend if that was standard on all of those things, said yes, it keeps you from running over your feet, he got a real funny look on his face, a Harley rider...:roflblack:

Are the RT's different for turning off the brake. I can do it on mine without turning the key on

I've got a Verizon switching office across the road from me... :shocked: You can get pretty tired of those beepers when you've been fed a steady diet of them; all day long! :gaah:
