    I'm about to hydrodip both the doors with more family skulls.
    Hardly have reason to opem the right one and Sirius is ignition wired in the other, so why not a few more reaper skulls...

    Yes the grip heater switch is in this location, but like lot's of others have said. It's a difficult area to see and use due to the throttle. I mounted my voltmeter in the panel below much easier to see there. Anything you need to use or push during your ride should be on the left side since this is your free hand unless you have cruise control or a manual cruise control.

    I would guess that the cover is fixed because they don't want you reaching across with your left arm while going down the highway I had a older wing that had a glove box on both sides that just my thinking Smitty.

    I mounted my ambient light sensor for my Headlight Modulators on it (the cover itself). I also have the handgrip heater controls installed on the cover as well.

    For me personally while riding; the right handlebar and control housing obscures most of the right side cubbyhole area for any other instrumentation that could be installed upon it.
    I want to install a headlight modulator, any suggestions on the best one out there. I like your location of the photocell on the right fake storage lid.

    Thanks

    I primarily like Kisan Modulators because they are plug and play; and I've never had one fail on me (use them on all motorcycles; past and present).

    I've also once used a Signal Dynamics modulator; but I had to splice into the headlight wiring for that particular unit. Looks like they are now manufacturing plug and play units as well:
