• 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.

Auxillary lights (fog lights) for F3

The factory auxillary lights (fog lights) for the F3 are halogen, not LED. If you have them they can be upgraded, but I bought Lamonster's lights for my 2017 F3T. The only gripe is that the kit lacks the "heat shield" that comes with the BRP halogen lights. It is not necessarily needed with Lamonster's LED lights because they don't run hot, but the heat shield also serves as a trim piece that completes the aesthetics. In another post I saw that someone cut a hole in the factory covers that fill the hole when no light is installed. The heat shields are only about $9 each and are aluminum instead of plastic. They are different left and right, so order one of each.

Did you order the heat shields direct from BRP? Other than the aesthetics, how do you like having the extra lights?

Search for those item numbers and you will see several vendors that can order them. I ended up using skidooparts.com but the parts shipped from Flemington Kawasaki in New Jersey.

The lights do help with visibility, but the beams are not focused. More of a flood light effect. Definitely help you be seen!

Now, about your GPS and windshield- you like?

I knew I read that somewhere, thanks for posting. Your method works for LED lights, those factory halogens would melt the plastic!
