That is cool... I was just asking because I was wondering if it is connected to the battery it will be hot all the time, right? I would like it to just come on with the key and would like to know if anyone has done that?

I installed that 2015 RT-S, I wired it to only come on with the key so it wouldn’t draw off the battery all the time. It’s been a couple of years but I believe that the wire color is orange.

Where did you see that one Billthekidd.

Thanks for the info and on my 14 I did install that in that manner. I should have said I now have an 18 but I think I can find a wire that only comes on with the ignition, maybe one of the other switches on the bike.

Here is what I was looking at... they have red, blue, green...

Pierre's video is very well done. I disagree with him on two points though. On removing and replacing the Side Panel, DO NOT use grease on the rubber grommets or the plastic pins on the panel. For a bit of lubrication to get the plastic pins to easily slide into the grommets, courtesy of Ann Meyer, a little spritz of Windex will moisten the grommets and the pins will almost jump into their holes. When the Windex dries you have a nice, tight grip of the grommets on the pins. Grease will be semi-permanent lubrication that might result in the side panel coming off easier than you want which could result in loss of the panel on the road. Secondly, on 2014 and later RTs there is no second clip on the lower front part of the Side Panel, only one on the upper edge as shown in the picture.

I bought the exact switch on Ebay for $12.36 including shipping
