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've got a slight mirror shake on my 2020 RTL.
This may be the solution, but I have no idea what it is or how difficult it is to install.
Is there any more information ?
A catalog cut of some kind ?

This fix is for the F3T or F3LTD. The 2020 RT is different, and I am working on a solution. Stay tuned in for updates! Joe

Got mine Saturday. Will install this week.
Thanks Joe.
Watched the video and the gentlemen said the mirror covers are subject to coming off do to wind. He suggested clear gorilla tape.
Not crazy about that, If you have to remove it's liable to take clear coat and paint. But will also leave an adhesive residue.
Just a thought and your opinion!!

Make sure the covers are seated. We have put clear gorilla tape underneath many mirrors. You can’t see it, and will remove. A quick wipe with goo gone, looks like new. To save a cover, I would tape it. Look closely at the gap around the cover. As long as it is uniform all the way around, no problem. Takes just a second to check. Call if you need help installing them. Joe

Put my wedgies in this morning. 15-20 min job tops.
Got waiting little nervous putting down pressure on bracket to get in. Was waiting for the snap noise. That's the way my luck goes, but didn't happen. Took for a ride ROCK SOLID. Thanks Joe best $25.00 spent. Excellent engineered product!!!
Did put a small piece of clear gorilla tape on bottom as u mentioned. Will check regularly

Finally got tired of mirror vibration and bought a set of these. All I can say is why did I wait so long. Did a 1450 miles trip last weekend in Southern Ohio and Kentucky, didn't have the first vibration!!! Awesome product.

JavaDan,
I also have a left mirror vibration issue on my 2020 RTL. What type of solution did Joe have to correct the problem? (I found the wedgies string of comments.) I did watch Lamonster's fix but would have to purchase the correct tap & died tool. I wonder what the difference is between the left and right mirror, the right mirror is fine. You would think that the construction and attachment would be exactly the same except in reverse (mirror imagine). Does BRP have a bulletin to fix the problem? Seems like the fix should be under the warranty. I have 2000 miles on my and will be taking it in for an oil change within the next month and will inquire about the mirror.
