Got this from FKNDLX.
Take an opener apart, solder wires to each side of the actuator switch. Mount the opener under the seat or side cover, running wires up through the tank console. Drill a small hole in the side of the tank console or even the inner fairing in a not so obvious place and mount a "moment" switch (Radio Shack, about a buck seventy five). Works great !
BTW, the head of the switch that protudes through the console is about a 1/4" in diameter, very small.

I wonder if somehting similiar could be done with the second aux switch I have on my rk custom. I use the right one for my passing lamps, and the second one is doing nothing? Hmmm
Very nice install, and it looks sweet. Ya done good!! Btw, ya didn't get any snaps on the transmitter wired up, did you?

-Not sure by what you mean on the snaps on the transmitter wired up?
HarleyFan: I considered the smaller push button... but once I got to radioshack and looked at it.... I figured when I would be in my cold weather gloves...it might be harder to sink the switch... so I went with the larger style..... Somewhere on lower fairing would work also.... I just balanced it with my odometer switch on the opposite side.....

Well two things for me with the aux switch.... 1) it is wired to the power... thus you would have to break all the lines to it from the switch so you dont blow your transmitter. 2) I wanted to use the aux switch for when I install my GPS/my plug in for the tire pump.

RE: Extra's and toys:
ahhh I didnt get the internal shots of the transmitter...... I plan on opening the fairing this week to upgrade the speakers... I will break it open then..... and get the shots...
OR... If you are unsure since all transmitters are different.... You can take a pic of the front and back of your transmitter and upload them... I will draw on it on the points u want to solder.

RE: Extra's and toys:
OUt of curiosity... how did you all run your power wires for the zumo??? Did you all use something like this: http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US under the left cover?--- where did you run/hide the wire from there up to your mounting bracket?
Thanks
