i was going to remove it all to gether or put on my fender by drilling some holes as for the piece that covers the bars i think there is two small bolts on either side or it just snaps on hope this helps. and if u do decide to remove the key all together i think u have to do something with the wiringbecause the fan doesnt kick on i heard that smewhere on this site

i just left my key on all the time and put it under my fender. i use my kill switch now to turn off my quad. this is all my bars consist of. clutch w/hot start, kill switch, throttle, and brake lever.

i put the key under the hood and just leave it on all the time and I taped the light to my handlebars. Dont really like it but it works

Or take a big drill bit and create your own hole like I did.

i put mine on the front fender, where the 450r graphic sticker was, then put the overheat light zip tied to the wires comming up to my controls so i could still see it

I completely removed the key and made an aluminum bracket to hold the temp light
