• 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.

A couple of Spring Projects

Spent the afternoon working on the Spyder RT.

Took the mirrors off and disassembled them.

Wrapped the lower black plastic trim on the front of the mirror under the blinker in 3M Di-Noc Carbon Fiber. The scariest part was taking the mirrors apart. I watched a couple of YouTube videos and read a couple of post here and took a wack at it. Like everyone says it's a little scary at first but they do just pop apart if you press on the tabs just right.

While I had them apart I went to Radio Shack and bought a couple of LED bulbs part # 267-0011 for $3 each and wired them into the lower inside corner of the mirror assembly so I could use them as a blinker indicator better. The arrow on the dash doesn't show up well in the bright sun.

Just a couple of nice little touches, nothing special just making it mine.

Nice job...love the CF look and the clean professional look of the single LED.
 
SPRING???!!! What part of Michigan has spring?! :yikes:

Seriously though...nice job. :thumbup:

Exactly, where is spring? Like you I woke up to 6 inches of the wettest, heaviest snow we've had this season. That's why I said I spent the afternoon on this project. It took me until noon to dig out a path to the garage.
