Hit the post office this morning. On the way!!
Sold 4 sets today at the Deadwood 3wheel rally. Have two more on the schedule tomorrow! If you have an F3T or F3LTD, you need a wedgie!!

We are so glad we can solve the mirror problem. Installed a half dozen today, and are heading to the post office tomorrow! Deadwood is great. Lots of new folks. Spectacular area! Someone remarked they could see Mt. Rushmore in their mirrors! Pretty cool!

Coolest quote today. “Best thing ever”!!
Her mirrors drove this lady nuts! We put wedgies in, and she took off. Came back and just was thrilled! Made my day!

Hit the post office in Wyoming to mail out a set on our way home from Deadwood. Got two more requests to fill tomorrow!
So glad this helps!! Beware! On 19 models, the cover on the front of the mirror falls off!! Put some gorilla tape on there until a fix is published. Might look bad, but protecting those expensive covers is worth it!!

And to clarify Joe's post, the 19 mirror covers are a redesign and no longer have a cut out for the turn signals, they must not have them sized properly as they seem to fall off. One poor guy at Deadwood had both covers fall off his brand new F3Ltd, we had two customers who had previously lost a cover, and three others who had covers ready to fall off. If you have a 19 F3T or F3Ltd keep a close eye on the covers and report to BRP if they are coming off. Clear Gorilla Tape is your friend.

I hit a big dip in the road and both mirror covers poped out at the top. Good thing they are screwed on with the Baker air wings. I just pushed them back on at the top. I would have lost both.

We can’t stress enough: check your mirror covers, particularly on the 19 models!! Until we come up with a classier solution, clear gorilla tape on top and bottom!! If you find yours loose, contact your dealer. We touch a lot of Spyders, so we see this problem more often than most.

We wanted a simple, easy to use fix, no drilling, cutting, or modifying your Spyder in any way. My Beta testers (Thank you one and all!) report thousands of miles, and no more shake! If you have a F3T or F3Limited, contact us for a set of Wedgies. $25, shipped in USA. Everywhere else, contact us for a shipping quote. Requires a #20 torx screwdriver. Cheers! Joe
How can I order one from Ontario Canada? Thanks.

Joe,
Just got back last week from Deadwood last Saturday. 4500 miles and the Wedgie was fabulous. You installed them in Tracy and the amazing thing about it is I don't even think about them, the mirrors behave the way they should have from the factory! Folks I didn't think I had a problem but we just love Joe and Ann and we were having our RT Squared Away so I just told Joe to install a set.....what a difference. Don't hesitate, this is the best and most effective thing you can do for your F3T or F3L! Thanks to Joe and Ann for all you do for the Spyder Community!

Thank you, everyone, for your kind words. We appreciate the feedback, and depend on word of mouth. If you meet someone who has an F3T/L, send them our way. You know they need a wedgie! I know that they need a wedgie. They might not know. Let them know!

Had a lady get a set. She opened the package, and was completely underwhelmed! She thought, “ I bought this?” Her husband put them in, and she was absolutely amazed!!! Mirrors that work! No way! Yup, works like a charm!! If we can prevent just one crash, I’m happy!

Couple more ‘19 models. No change - still need a wedgie!! Beware, 2019! Models have issues with the mirror covers. A bit of clear tape to safeguard the covers until BRP comes up with a proper fix.

Joe, I installed mine today, been busy, and went for a good ride. At 75 mph, clear as a bell. So simple yet so effective, way to go! I hope you can sell a boat load of them as they really do make a difference. Prepping for my anual trip to Suches, GA the weekend after labor day for my Concours group get together at Two's.
Life is attitude, be positive!

Sweet! We used to live In Indialantic, across the river from Melbourne. I'm glad you like them, and they work great! We love the customer feedback! Thank you for the kind words. Makes using the mirrors a joy!
We have several more trips before we close the books on 2019 - Utah, NORCAL, Utah, OK, TX, FL, CA. We have the wedgies with us, so we can mail them out on the go. We determined we have 12,000 more miles to go this year, plus in and around and commuting to work. We can always find a post office! Joe
