• 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.

What courier/shipping service to get Slingmods gear to Canada?

Anyone in Canada order from Slingmods for accessories?
Wondering what courier you pick or use some sort of shipping service where you get it shipped to a PO Box in USA then the service brings it over to their warehouse or to your house.
Thinking of ordering the Slingmods EvolutionR series plug n play LED Auxiliary Running Light Bar for the Spyder RT and want to know cheapest way to ship it to Canada.
The OEM Light Bar is way overpriced, and these things are plug and play.

Thanks

Peter

Shipments to Canada were always "interesting," back when I was in retail and did a lot of mail order to Canada. Customs forms were always required then. Customers would complain about the high tariff on some items which they were required to pay. And yes, we WOULD NOT "fudge" what was being shipped. The customs inspectors would check each package, and that was before everyone and their uncle were trying to ship "illegal" items in the mail system. I am guessing it is even more thorough now. :thumbup:
 
I live in Ontario. I had my 3 piece luggage kit shipped to Bluewater Shipping in Port Huron, Michigan. Very reasonable pricing.
 
I live in Niagara on the Lake, have my shipments sent to my Dropbox at UPS in Lewiston NY.
Cost at UPS is $5 unless it is oversized.
 
I have ordered several items from Slingmods. They ship via Fedex. Shipping is fast and includes your receipt with the packing slip. Even though the Canadian dollar sucks, l find the prices are cheaper versus Cdn prices. Just to note, you will get an invoice from Fedex for shipping, duty, and taxes sometime later in the mail.
 
I have purchased items from canamspyderaccessories, they charge American prices. I still find Slingmods cheaper. Just my two cents.
 
You might want to consider ordering from aliexpress if you're looking to purchase the front auxiliary running light. I bought one about a month ago and it works perfectly. Here is the link to the light I purchased for my 2023 S2S -

EDIT: When I made the purchase on 11 Feb 2025, the cost was $28.13; looks like they've nearly double that and it's now $54.02. Must be tariffs???

That’s only partially true, they now have Canadian price on the English version, look on top and select Canadian, been like this for just a little while.
 
One example, I have priced a Madstad windshield for my F3-L. Madstad had a 15% discount, but shipping to me was $114 Cdn. The same windshield at canamspyderaccessories, shipped, was cheaper, plus shipped from Canada, with no potential add-on fees being shipped from Madstad in Florida. I do compare total costs when purchasing
