I noticed the alarm case was getting marred and I haven’t begun to ride yet. I decided to cover it with heat shrink tubing [matches cover its mounted on; additional water protection, etc.]. In shrinking the tubing, a small part of the blue cover deformed–off to Lowes. I bought a cover that should work. I installed it in a way that sound get out and it looks neat. Plus, better water protection. I like the finished result.
There’s no problem using the key pad. I probably have added an additional level of protection by covering the alarm and its keys.
