I read through all 55 pages last night, and I am pretty impressed with the DIY attitude that's evident. Not everybody is afraid to drill a hole somewhere on their bike, or install an accessory that doesn't have the official bar and shield logo.
Today it was raining like a cow pi$$ing on a flat rock, so, inspired by last night's reading, I decided it was time to tackle the garage door opener mod. I've got a Craftsman (rebadged Genie) garage door opener with the 12 volt remotes. I couldn't be happier with the results. I used double sided tape to attach the remote to the top of the stereo. I hard wired the remote, so I don't have to worry about changing batteries. I used a odometer reset button for my momentary switch, it looks like the factory put it there. Having read the process about a gazilllion times last night made it feel like I had actually done the mod before, and it all went very smoothly, even reinstalling the outer fairing.
I was going to do the Radio Shack siren mod tomorrow, but it looks like sunshine, so that'll have to wait for the next rainy day.
