Good job. I added the same lighting to my F3 several months ago and love them, looks good on the Spyder and the extra lights works for better visibility. Safe Travels!
Haha, when I was done recording, I had an hour & a half of footage 😳🤪😵 and my first thought was... time to sharpen the scissors to cut this thing down somehow 🤔🙄🤣
The instructions don't say to test them before installation, but it would be frustrating to remove them at the end if, for some reason, they weren't working 😵💫☺️
Those brake lights really look nice on there. I like how it adds to the visibility of the Spyder from behind. You done a nice job on the installation of the lights and made a great video to boot. I am sure it will be helpful to others like me in the future.
I cant believe you found room for even more lights! I agree, that with the trailer blocking some of the lights it helps to have more. That is way more than I am willing to try to install but your installation instructions were easy to follow. It looks great, Wayne!
Haha, big lights for big trunk. My issue has been the occasional big bump in the road that sometimes pops the trailer plug loose, and the trailer lights go out. The "square" plug supplied by BRP is not the greatest style plug. Thanks, Stan 😁👍
Haha, well, when one has about 90 minutes of video footage, it was nice that I could find about 12 minutes of decent usable clips 🙄☺️🤣, but thank you for the kind words, Scott 😁👍
Awesome video. As you know I'm not big into all the extra lighting, but I do love lights for safety. BRP needs to take notice. Thanks Wayne. PS maybe those deers will see you now.
I can definitely see why you wanted to add those lights. Not sure if I will add them if I'm not going to be pulling a trailer. I have no idea what a step drill is...
The hole being drilled just keeps getting bigger and bigger as you drill. You stop drilling when you get to the step you need on the drill bit. Each step on the drill bit is marked.
Great video. Very informative. Good stuff. I really like the idea of the pool noodle. HI YO SILVER, the Mini Kamp are very visible day and night. NicelY Done. Thanks for sharing. StaY Alert. rYde Safe, in a Fun Way. Keep on SpYdering. 🕷️🕸️🇺🇸😎🇨🇦. HI YO SILVER.👍😀.
Haha, it took me about 2 hrs, and I had over 90 minutes of footage, with a ton of useless blah blah blah. It took me hours to edit this one, which, for a garage video, was unusual. I just kept going back through the footage over and over and over to cut stuff and cut more and more stuff out. Boy, can I ever blab and blab when I'm thinking out loud these days 🙄😳😵💫☺️🤣
Hey Wayne great video. I noticed you had the sequential front fender lights also. Could you post what kind and where you got them. I am interested in doing the same.set up you have. Thanks
I purchased the fendet lights from Slingmods: Can-Am Spyder 2019+ F3 & RT Front Fender Sequential LED Turn Signals & Running Lights by TricLED. I ALSO purchased the TrricLED 1:2 Front Fender Accessory Power Harness for the Can-Am Spyder F3 & RT (2019+) Set of 2, which I needed to install the floorboard lights along with the fender lights.
Mention was made of getting some additional lighting up higher due to a trailer, yet when you separated the harness under the passenger seat I did not notice a wiring harness for trailer lights. My question is, do the installation instructions make mention of what to do if you have a previously installed trailer harness in the location of where the top case lights are supposed to plug in? In other words is there room to tuck away both a top case lights harness and a trailer harness?
@robertlarrabee9115 No, the instructions don't mention what you're asking about. On my first 2020 Spyder (4 yrs ago), I installed my trailer light harness myself at the back under the trunk where the Spyder tail lights are. On my current Spyder, I had the dealer install the OEM harness for my trailer, from BRP, and I'm not sure where they installed that harness, but it wasn't where these tour pack lights were connected as shown in this video (under the rear passenger seat). There was still a little bit of room where I stuffed the plug n play connector under the rear passenger seat, so I believe there is room for it, but I'm not 100% certain depending on the size of the trailer light splitter harness.
@@SpyderWayneOk-my trailer hitch and harness came from Pierre up in Quebec. The trailer light harness is plug n play and goes in the exact same location as the top case harness you used. I could wire myself but plug n play makes things soooo easy and as I get older I’m getting lazier!
@robertlarrabee9115 Here's what I suggest if you're interested in these lights, which I love these lights by the way, call Slingmods, and tell them about your harness for the trailer, and one of their guys who is familiar with installing these lights can give you an expert opinion. I think you can daisy chain this harness to your trailer harness I've called them for some other issues in the past, and they're super helpful over the phone.
You are very quietly becoming very handy in the garage. Great job on this tutorial install, Wayne!
Thank you, Eric 😁 BTW, the batteries for my ftidge worked great on my recent trip to Ohio 👍👍

Yep... probably spent 8 or 9 hours to edit 90 minutes of footage down to a 12 min video... retirement time is a blessing 😂 Thanks, Craig 😁👍
Good job. I added the same lighting to my F3 several months ago and love them, looks good on the Spyder and the extra lights works for better visibility. Safe Travels!
I really love these lights 😁👍👍
Wayne’s Mechanical World. Very good explanation, installation and editing. We aren’t worthy.
Well done

much improved visibility but even better tutorial, great job Wayne..
I really love these lights, a little pricey, but they're big, high, and bright !!! Thanks, JB 😁👍
Enjoyed this install video.
Awesome, thank you! 😁👍
Good idea on checking those lights before you installed them! 👍
The instructions don't say to test them before installation, but it would be frustrating to remove them at the end if, for some reason, they weren't working 😵💫☺️
@@SpyderWayne absolutely!!
Wow Wayne ! Are you becoming a rock star ? I am not sure if you can sing or play anything but the hair is on par 😂
Well, I have 3 guitars and a keyboard, and sometimes I can sing a tune or two... but I still ended up in a bean-counting career .... 🤔🙄🤣🤣
Yep, Eddie! I can attest to the fact that Wayne can sing and play several instruments very well! 🤗🎤🎸🎹
@@PurpleOnThree I occasionally like to frolick in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah-Lee 🎶

Excellent! Now I have to save this to my Can-Am Farkle install playlist.
Oh wow, a Farkle Playlist... you're gonna make me blush ☺️👍
MasterTech! Excellent tutorial. Show Chrome take note.

Slick instal right there .Most certainly going to be of great help to many .Good stuff Wayne
Well, I hope it helps a few folks. Thank you so much, Terry 😁👍
I don't think I realized that the seat is heated on your RT! Even the passenger seat...wow!
Yeah, the heated passenger seat and heated passenger hand grips on my Spyder never get used, but comes in handy for couples riding 2 up. 😁
Awesome video. As you know I'm not big into all the extra lighting, but I do love lights for safety. BRP needs to take notice. Thanks Wayne. PS maybe those deers will see you now.
Shhhhhhhh.... no more deer 😳😁🤣
Extra lights. What a “ Bright “ Idea. 🤩. HI YO SILVER. 🕷️🕸️😎🇺🇸🇨🇦.
Just trying to "lighten" things up ☺️🤣
Awesome install Wayne! Very useful lights when towing your camper. Cheers!
I really like these lights. Thanks, Richard 😁👍
These light are really nice and add a lot more visibility for sure! You need to open a Spyder Repair Center!
Very kind words, thanks , RJ 😁👍
But don't forget, with magical editing, one can make oneself look like they know what they're doing 😊😅
Thank you for posting this tutorial, these lights look good and are a great addition to the back of these trikes.
I really do like these lights, thanks 😁👍
Great video Wayne. Always very informative and makes me want to do more work myself! Ride safe and have fun sir.
Thank you so much 😁👍

@@SpyderWayne WOW! How come Torquey Tommy doesn't have one of these? Well...hmmm, perhaps he does and I just don' know?? 🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀
Thank you for the vedio now I feel confident I can install these lights
It wasn't too difficult, but take your time, and measure twice !! 😁👍
Wayne, Great Job!!! I love Mine on my 23 RT Limited.
the only other issue i had was i have passenger arm rests, my trunk does not open all that way.
@@allee68 Thank you so much 😁👍
Awesome video. I'm waiting on mine so I can install myself. Thank you.
I absolutely love these lights 😁👍
Lights look good Wayne 👍
