Yes. Faint lines on backside of dash for template to use exacto knife / razor on.

Not knockouts. My bad.

We talked about it some on this thread.

@trigger was there.

I remember that thread and feeling like a moron because I never saw them. I even looked on the backside for clearance and such but never saw those lines until you said they were there, sure enough there they were. :rolleyes:

Anyone else have problems with the bottom seat? Mine gets wet in the summer & turns into a giant sponge that soaks up all the water & never dries. Any ideas? Thinking of pulling off the cover spraying the whole foam cushion with flex seal then recovering with the same cover or maybe a new & improved cover?? Any & all thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!
Mine never dries out either. It must weigh 50lbs. I do have a small nick in the passenger side seat from where my boot caught it one day, but being honest it soaked in water long before that from going deep. I just live with it.

power has never been a problem. But no rev limiter would be nice at times. also the dust it generates. I have figured out not to get in a hurry. And how to block most of the dust. Still love the purchase. If it had more bells and whistles not sure it would be in my price range any longer.

With the P500 becoming more and more popular with riders here I thought it would be interesting to post the one thing you HATE about your pioneer 500. Most of the gripes have been solved with aftermarket goodies but in stock trim? Enjoy!!

My 2 DON'T LIKES is the torso bars on the 2017+ I'd give anything for my old one back with the low profile torso bars and cab comfort space
I think you should add other choise, so I could vote on don't have one! That's the only thing I have against them, HA!

I have an angle attachment for my impact and hex drill bits and just drilled the corners from inside then used a step it to drill the center out. Cleaned up with a file.

I looked closely and yes there are three very faint outlines. Two round ones and a rectangular one under the warning plate where the glove box should be. Only one of the round ones is where I would want to use it. They are there so I stand corrected on that point. I will now say they should be located on the front of the dash and so identified in the owners manual.

@Bastardchild as deep as you go, you need to use personal flotation device for a seat :D

A hatch on hood with access to a storage box would be sweet! Choog, can you work on that for us?

I have been kicking around the idea of buying a second hood off eBay and making a hood with a hatch in it that the windshield doesn’t block.

I have the same issue! Not a problem til it drops below freezing and the seat becomes a solid block of ice! :eek: I actually thought about buying a spare and keeping it for winter and keeping the old for everything else!
