Default Small Bag for Garage Door Controller

Does anyone know where I can get a small leather bag?

I would like it suitably sized to fit on the door that covers the coolant filler/tank on a '14 Ultra Limited.

Everybody messes with mounting a remote on the bike. I use this. Small & inexpensive. It hangs on a belt fob with my bike key, is easily accessible & always with me.

At Harley, it's not leather, but they have a bag called "the mini me". It looks like a very small back pack. I mounted it to that door for exactly that reason. I put the remote, my bike keys, and my prescription sunglasses, and a few napkins.

That's a good idea. I had a switch installed on my old bike that was hard wired into a remote. Your idea simplifies the process and I'm going to go do that mod tomorrow! I even have the velcro strips out in the garage somewhere.

I use my left front pocket, stick out index finger & push. Works every time & didn't have to mount anything on the bike....

I usually pull up and my wife jumps off and opens the door with the outside remote. I do however like the idea of mounting the remote inside the USB box.

We have the extra room and I have a small remote that I sometimes carry on the bike.

Thanks guys

That's a good idea 02, my remote is a big old fashioned clunky one, but I'll see if it fits.

Thanks everyone who replied, luv yuz all!!

I had mine hard wired in my 2012 Electra Glide too, it was cool. I even bought a new style Acc switch for my 14, but the 14 switch is totally different, and requires allot of ingenuity to get it to work. I don't like carrying anything with me, or having to remember to bring it with me. It stays there all the time, I don't have to think about losing it, or it getting stolen, you can't see it, and it's protected from the weather too. I have the old clunky style remote too, and it just takes up too much room in the USB Compartment. I just reach under there and hit the button while coming down the driveway, very convenient, and it took 5 minutes to install.
