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.

I tried 708300155...nothing came up
708300156 is the part number for the right hand side radio antenna boot ....Will that work on the left side CB antenna??

I got the part number off of my CB installation instructions. It is for the left side and no the right will not fit correctly. You have to order the part through a dealer.
Just got off the phone with my dealer..100 miles away...he wanted to sell me the right side boot...i said it won't work...He is still looking for the right one..that part number 708300155 is not coming up for him

I just looked at the boots on my RT. There are two differences, both of which you can work around. The hole for the antenna is larger for the CB so a drill will easily fix that. There are three notches in the tupperware on the edge of the hole. The two top ones look to be the same on right and left. The bottom one is left of center on the left side, and right of center on the right side. You could modify either the boot to remove the interfering rubber with an xacto knife, or cut a new notch in the tupperware. I didn't double check, but the angle between the antenna and the body may be a problem, but looking at the two boots side by side I don't think so.
If the boot doesn't cost much, and you're having too much of a hassle getting the correct one, why not try making the radio one fit? You'll be out a few dollars is all.
Thanks for that info...i was wondering what if any, was the difference between them..if i can't get the LH side boot, I will modify the RH boot...Thanks again

When I installed my J&M cb on my 2014 RTS I just used the radio antenna boot
with no changes and it works fine.
