I just bought it earlier this week. Viewing the forum on your phone is easier for sure. It has the feel you would expect from an app and doesn't require the zooming and moving around required in the web browser on your phone. My only complaint so far, and it's a big one, is that there isn't (at least I haven't found it) an option to view recently updated posts and threads. When I get on the forum, that's all I really care to see. I like to see the active conversations and topics. From my experience so far, which is less than a week, the app is better suited for the guy who comes to the forum to look up a particular topic, not to the guy who periodically checks in to see what is going on. I have the Android version BTW.

I haven't looked into it much, but I did find myself looking at the Wal-Mart website yesterday looking at these. They're only like $18 there.

Hey Matt, is this something you were surprised to see when you got home from your ride, or did you realize some gravel got kicked up when it happened? It makes me wonder if it might be a good idea to proactively reinforce that front panel with some fiberglass weave on the back.

Matt, tell me why you decided to mount them there and why you did both a USB and 12V. My plan was just to buy one of these: www.amazon.com/Marine-Grade-Cigarette-Lighter-Socket/dp/B0002KRC5Y, and have it available somewhere on the outside of the scoot. I'm considering maybe even devoting the whole glovebox to after-market electrical crap that's surface mounted and using the door on the glove compartment only as an access panel to the guts of the electronic junk. By the way, your glovebox is much more sealed than mine. I have two gaping holes for the hinge clearance. Yours at least are slotted. I couldn't put, for instance, a marble in mine. It would fall right out the bottom of one of the holes. I like what you've done here though. Nice work!

Can I get the link from you, monk?

3 thousandths on both?

Oh crap. I just thought of another question I meant to ask you guys. I'd like to add a 12V cigarette lighter socket for powering accessories in a pinch, but mostly for easy hookup of my trickle charger. My plan is to wire the outlet in parallel with the main power leads for the rest of the electrical system. Simply stated, I would hook up the battery as normal, but also wire the leads of the outlet directly to the battery terminals. It makes electrical sense to me. What say you? If you're cool with doing that, should I fuse it? My natural inclination is to wire the outlet directly to the battery, fused with a 15A fuse.
