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.
Looking for a Spyder key cover with a hole?! Any ideas?

OK, thank you for that info! I really liked the look of this cover, but was concerned it wouldn't fit my 2020 RTL. Now I may give it a try.

No disrespect to the retailer, but those are practically useless.
You can't open the frunk with the key because it wont press deep enough (cover hits) and you have to superglue the halves together.
I drilled key like recommended in LaMonster video. Works fine.

I am sorry you had that problem but you are alone, I have been using them for years with no problems
you must have installed them wrong or if not, a nail file could remove a small amount of the plastic so the key
can go into the lock deeper. Super glue is a good idea as well. I will be happy to make a video and post it or send it to you
so you can see that they do indeed work very well and are not costly.

Key covers
I got Motorcycle Dave's key covers and they worked great. I used model glue. My .05 tip. .....:thumbup:

I'm with Possible on this.
And even more important, with all of the reported DESS problems, do you really want to hang metal around the ignition receiver ?

My last 3 or 4 vehicles have been keyless; My last 2 motorcycles were keyless. I find that I am walking away from my Spyder leaving the key in the ignition.
I drilled a hole in mine as noted by others and put a key ring with a leather fob on it so that I would be more likely to remember to remove the key. I covered the metal bits with shrink wrap so they wouldn't scratch anything.
The only negative is that the leather fob part sometimes covers up the windshield and heated grips rocker switches during a ride.

Come on guys.... I now have one of each. I've had the plastic one's since I've had the bike and now the metal. So I have a key on each. I love them both. I've never had a problem opening anything. I glued the plastic one and locktighted the second. Choice is the name of the game....
