    Question Anyone worked out how to Heat the Passenger Arm Rests?

    Hello All,

    I have a 2020 Spyder RTL with the factory passenger armrests. I know we are all coming into our summer rides but has anyone figured out a way to transfer the heat from the heated hand grips to the armrest? My wife can't reach them and will not ride without the armrests. We ride on the weekends unless it's less than 45 degrees here in Norther Virginia.

    Gratefully,

    Dan

    I don't think using the heated hand grips is your best option ..... On snowmobiles heated hand grips can be easily added using a KIT designed for that purpose ..... go to DENNISKIRK.com ( snowmobile catalog ) and search heated hand grips ..... I've seen them sold at that site ...... good luck ..... Mike

    I imagine it would be far easier to wire in a plug and buy her some heated glove liners ? …. Or gloves?

    check out Warm and Safe. They have very nice heated gloves and it is easy to install the wiring.

    P.S. an AMA membership will get you a 20% discount.
