    MYOB. I dont drive with it in traffic. 99% of the time I keep the tray shut. If i need directions, I take a peek at a red light or pull over and see whats up.

    I've driven over 70k miles on a motorcycle and over 400k miles in a car and have never been in or caused an accident

    Pretty easy, it was just taking some of the clips out that was hard. especially trying not to scratch the paint.

    You could move the hood pin switch. That's what I did when I installed my Redline struts.

    Yea, I thought about that. We'll see. If I need the rocker switch for future lighting, I might revert back to the pin switch. Where is yours now?

    You must listen to this man he is wise.

    I didn't really price them out. The dude I got mine from services FedEx and UPS trucks so I think he got it to me at his cost.

    I've also contemplated getting some kind of wedge thing to direct air over the top to help with fuel economy.
