Instrument lighting mode

[Gator37]

Is there a way to keep the instrument panel, Time, Temp. etc., on night time mode. Sure is easier to read.

NITE MODE

You need to cover the " SENSOR PICK-UP " so it tricks the Spyder into thinking it's dark......lots of folks have done it here..........Someone will chime in and tell you where it is.....................Mike :bbq:

Don't know. ..!!

you have to find it on the panel using a black dot and sliding it around I believe to the right side till the lighting changes. Then fix a patch over that spot with black tape or the likes....I know someone posted a picture once upon a time ...:thumbup:

...Analog Speedometer face, at about the 10:00 position... :thumbup:

Well------

I found the sensor to be just under the" 200 MPH" putting more at the 1 o'clock position. I used black E-tape with the cornors cut off. Dosen't block any of the symbols that come on at first key turn. Easy to remove if I don't like "on tour".

Kaos

:shocked: I could have had my watch on upside-down...
Sorry about the misdirection!

So, you're just sticking a small piece of tape right on the screen? Is it obvious where to stick it? Might have to try this.

No, there is no ARROW pointing to the spot :dontknow::roflblack:......But in the daytime if you move something small around in the AREA described above when you cover the spot the screen will change ........THAT'S THE SPOT :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:...Mike :bbq:

It only comes on the RT-S, and Limited models....
Well worth the $4000 difference; don't you think?? :joke::joke::joke:

Glad this came up

Thanks for all the thoughts posted. Used the info late this afternoon and covered the sensor. Tomorrow I'll determine what I really think but I think it may be a plus in this FL sun that will help with the glare and seeing the info.

Covering the light sensor

I am attaching a picture i did this afternoon, not the greatest workmanship but a smooth rounded and smaller piece of electrical tape in the right spot will probably do the trick. By the way i have a 2013 RT

Thanks Tulefog, by golly that works.

Maybe a real small spider decal won't be so bad! How about it Lamonstet?

 

[Tulefog]

Can't read the speedometer at 185?

That's a thought, I think the screaming passenger would start at about 150!

 

[BLUEKNIGHT911]

150 mph

You travel with Brave people :clap::clap::clap:........Mike :bbq:
