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.

About one third the cost, several different sizes, not as fancy. The installation is fairly straight forward, instructions are pretty good, figure 1 to 3 hours for install.
One complaint, the screws supplied for the back pad are too short, had to pick up some stainless wood screws 1/4 inch longer to put it on.
I'm pretty well satisfied with mine, my passenger says she likes it.
Hope this helps.

Did you have an extra set of hands to install the bracket that goes under the seat? Or, did you use duct tape to hold the plates in place that the bolts go into? Or, are you just that good mechanically that you didn't do either? I'm not being sarcastic; so, don't get upset.
It's a long story and I know about the left & right under seat brackets and plates.

The plates weren't a lot of trouble, I started 1 bolt in each one and all I had to do after that was line up the other weld nut. The install took a little longer than I planned, cause I detoured in the middle and did some other things while I had the tupperware off. If I remember right, I had more problem with the new seat hinge bolts than anything else because of my Russell seat and one of my friends hasn't returned my ball tip hex keys, the seat interferes with access and straight hex keys won't fit well enough to get things tight.
