• 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.

    Keep in mind on the '17 model you can play music directly from a USB stick plugged in the glovebox.

    2016 Spyder F3-T - is this a Battery showing signs of age/decay? Or is it not charging? If so, why?

    Last spring I installed a Noco NLP20 lithium Ion in my 2024 F3T and could not be happier. 600 cca, and I use their Genius 1 maintainer.

    New member, thanks for having me - and where's a good place to get these things?

    For a very nice windshield try 7Jurock. They will customize it to your specifications and cost around $200 US.

    F3 2024-25 Foglights not coming on - which fuse to check?

    I just installed the 2024-2025 F3 fog light kit from Lamonster and the lights do not come on. I contacted them and they shipped another switch to me, it will arrive by Saturday. In the meantime can anyone tell me which fuse to check? I looked in the manual and could not find this info. Thanks johnv

    Is a BEST extended warranty a good idea? What's the process on selling your BEST warrantied Spyder?

    The Best warranty is refundable for a prorated amount. I just traded in my 2022 for a 2024 and the dealer would not give me any extra for the warranty. I purchased the 3 year warranty for iMotorsports for around $750 on 12/27/2024 and cancelled it on 4/25/2025. I received a $700 refund from Best.

    2024 RT wont shift into reverse - anyone else? Any ideas/fixes?

    Is anyone having these problems with an F3. From all the posts it appears that all posts are from an S2S or RT. Does not make sense or am I reading this wrong.

    Apple CarPlay update - what is the secret to getting it working properly??

    I have a 2024 F3T and find that with a bit of tweaking the ACP works very well. Make sure your software is up to date.
