• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Need Some Quick Ans on Seat Colors

Bob, at Utopia, has my seat apart already and is R&Ding the underneath bracket. He needs to know what colors are used on the various models so he can work out what to use on the
backrest.

I know my RT SE has the two tone black/gray. Do all RT SE's use this?

How about the Limited?

How about the Basic model?

Does anyone know if the frame that the seat rests on, is the same as the '13?

Tip: When I did the same thing you are doing, only for the 2010 RT, I went to my local dealer and got their permission to take measurements on one of their display models. When Bob asked for measurements of gaps between the bottom of the saddle and the frame of the Spyder, I got some Playdough and plastic wrap, made a ball of Playdough, wrapped them in plastic, placed at the point in question and lowered the saddle & sat on it. I then dismounted, lifted the saddle and had a perfect mold of the space in question that I could easily measure.

Here is a photo Bob sent me with what he needed shown:



And here is what I sent back to him, along with measurements of the clay:





We exchanged quite a few emails and pics as we worked together on it. I also sent him the passenger backrest to be used as a model for his stitch design and material selection.

Good luck! It'll be well worth the effort and many SpyderLovers will appreciate your time spent on the project.
 
RT:
Black

RTS:
Two-tone Black & Gray

RT Limited:
BlackDark Chocolate
Burgundy


Thanks Bob....and my post wasn't all that clear; i've inserted the word "seat" but don't need it now. On the RT Litmited:
Is the Black/dark choc of the same pattern as the RTS?
 
I'm not exactly helping very much; am I?
That should have been
Black
Dark Chocolate
Burgundy
The RT Limited's seats are all one color each...
:shocked:

Hey, I don't see anybody else stepping up to the plate. Many thanks Bob. I've sent your info on to Utopia. He's finished with my seat and it will be back next tuesday. When WX here in the south gets nice again, I'll post some pics of it.
