[size=7px]Heated backrest would only be avail, if orig seat base is factory heated..[/size]

Cubby would be built on your original rear seat base.

For all you 2014+ RT’ers that ride most of the time, without a passenger..


Who would be interested in a lockable, waterproof storage area, with a built-in heated, adjustable backrest, that would replace your rear seat ?

My backrest, lumbar support and waterproof storage, all-in-one !

Very close match to factory..

Anyone ever consider using one of these smaller antenna units, possibly placed on top/center of an RCU shelf. Would provide better position of antenna for better reception and is fairly small in size, so would not be very obvious.

Look off center to right. If your phone is not much larger than an IPhone 7, you can still see left half of Tac..
