    I hide my NOCO under the center seat on my truck. Haven’t had any issues with it. Just recently pulled it out to recharge.

    $400-500, IIRC. The frame was in good shape and I didn't have my appointment until mid-December. Sounds like right now is the time to get it done and still get the summer discount. Future years are supposedly less money than the initial treatment/coating. The pricing included dropping all of the cat plate & mounts, coating them all as well, and reinstalling.

    That's a good price. Did they strip & chemically treat the metal before painting? It looks like that's proper painting & not undercoating?

    That is just NHOU "clear" undercoating. No painting, minimal (if any) prep was required since I had historically done undercarriage washes, weekly, since it was driven off the lot new. Being in central MA with the salt and brine, I wanted to preserve it before it started to show signs of NE winters. In hindsight, I'll probably never not have our future vehicles treated as soon as we take ownership. I like not having seized nuts or bolts.

    So you can’t store them in your vehicle because it gets to hot but you take them with you when you leave the house and then leave them in there while you are out and about which exposes them to very high temperatures that you aren’t supposed to. Ill stick to cables.

    lol
    I've been unknowingly taking my chances year-round with them baking in a black tool chest in the bed. Along with a couple Crapsman cordless drill batteries. I'll continue down that road & just keep topping them off every handful of months. Next hot sunny day, though, I'm gonna take the temperature gun out there & see how hot it actually gets in that chest.

    Can’t be repaired by paint-less dent removal. Gotta go to body shop.

    Yeah, bought mine before eventually replacing my battery and now it sits in the house and I feel like it's kinda a waste.

    Very nice! Been there a number of times. We usually go to the beaches off season so the doggies can come with us. Ever go to the Clam Castle just down the road from the park (.4mi)?

    Thanks, just made appt with local installer from that site//going with the hybrid solution .. lifetime transferrable warranty, and only needs touch-ups every 2yrs or so. quoted around 1500. If just wanted the oil it's around 400 and needs done every year.

    Hahaha, man I know you aren’t near Miami, but I’d die to be in South Beach right now. That warm FL water is AMAZING.

    Little mock up. Should work well here. May use this primarily and keep the dual arb under the seat but we’ll see how it works out.

    You replied to RobertD with this in reference to HotTails VLED taillights. How does it eat up taillight housings? I've not heard this before this comment.

    Aftermarket fenders and long travel puts strain on the weak light tabs. Also this doesn’t help
