Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between KM8A and KM8B?
They are the same plate: the KM8A is made of grey/silver anodized aluminum, the KM8B in black. Only the finish changes.
Can I mount the stop light kit on the top case?
No. With the KM8A, it is not possible to mount the stop light kit on the case or the remote opening device.
Is the top case included?
No. The package contains only the KM8A plate with the fixing kit. The Monokey top case must be purchased separately.
