Question Radio Cover?
Hey Guy's, has anyone ever seen clear plastic covers over the radio? I've seen something like these on some FLH's and was wondering who makes them. The ones I've seen looked like they were hinged and flipped up. The only reason I'm asking is because I've had a radio get ruined from riding in a very hard rain one day a couple years ago. Any takers????

Check boating supply places, I haven't looked in a while but there used to be a few different styles.

Older models (pre '96 for sure) had a flip up flat plastic cover door, maybe that's what you're thinking of?

I am pretty sure the Biketronics cover only fits their radios.

I've got the Biketronics cover and does keep the radio dry.Had to drill a hole in the bottom right side with a grommet to run my aux. cable to Sirius radio.Kind of a pain to remove but do only to change a cd so works for me.Believe Kury makes a chrome accent for the radio that has a hinged plastic cover,just saw it in a catalog.
