I finaly chose a dealer and he told me they are shutting down or not selling spyders any more.Sense I am the last spyder he is doing .Should I ask to be present so I can learn more about how to take off the panels and do my own service .

Bummer...

You can try....most shops will not allow customers in the shop area due to a bunch of rules..OSHA. Otherwise you can get online manuals (shop) that will be helpful for any job you choose to tackle....:thumbup:

For future reference, this video does a fine job of walking you through tupperware removal.

Assuming you have a 2014 or later, there's also this great oil change video by Shawn Smoak.

In addition to Pam's recommendation about watching Shawn Smoak's very good video, read your operator's guide and it walks you through panel removal. It wouldn't hurt to take pictures with your cell phone as you remove panels to document where the various length screws go or put them back in their holes when you remove one. It isn't difficult. Remember, those two shiny headed Torx screws with a ridge in them on the bottom of the Top Side Panels (the name from your operator's manual) are not to be removed. They slide into rubber grommets. SpyderAnn recommends spraying those rubber grommets with a little Windex before you reinsert pins in them --it's an excellent tip.

:shocked: I'm sorry to hear that you're losing them...
But go ahead and ask; it can't hurt to do so! :thumbup:

BPR has this thing that in Sept all dealers must put there orders in. This dealer was told they had to take 40 units. They sold 5 all year. Dealer tells BRP they will take ten units for this up coming year BRP says no . Dealer then has no choice but to tell BRP come and take all remaining stock.

I've heard that this is the way that the Dealerships and Manufacturers have always sparred with each other... nojoke

I don't know how that system works but I would be very upset if they told me no to only buy 10 units and I had 30 in stock ..

:agree: ..... I think everyone has a " DOLLAR STORE " or Dollar General ....... I bought a bunch of bottles of Nail Polish @ $1.00 ea. :roflblack: ......in various colors........ I painted ALL the bolts and the clips they go in with Matching colors so The sizes don't get confused.........just a thought............Mike :thumbup:
