because the damn thing would never stay on. I was riding down the highway and I hear... dink, dink..... dink.
I look in my rear view mirror and see the cover flipping away into oblivion.
So, other than shelling out $90 for a new cover that is just gonna fall off anyways, do I have any other options?

Here is my fix that requires nothing more that a spare screw sitting around the garage.

Only had trouble with battery cover flopping open when I am running over 80. Going to drill the plastic clip and drop a short zip tie thru the hole tonight since my buddies like to burn the roads up and we're all heading down to MB bike week. I think the zip tie idea would work best.
