A quick little 10 minute
Modification will allow you to run larger 6.5 inch speakers in your factory speaker pods .

Thanks, I know what i need to do now. Have some speakers for my Road Glide that i have a feeling wont fit into the pod without this same technique being used. and I don't want to settle for quality. I want my Sundown 6.5's

[@ericortiz6869]

That guy on Facebook can’t complain now. Lol you’re the man for that Carlos. Drop a Euphoria 8’XL video brother or a vs Beyma monster

Vibration tool is perfect, appreciate the video 🤙🏻👍

[@MadmanCustoms]

Great video! Thank you

[@hectorsantiago321]

Good to know. Thank you

[@martymorgan3085]

Carlos, Thank you for the vid for us DIY-ers. Appreciated! I bought the DA MSPRO65's for my 16 RGS fairing. Using a dremel tool, and yeah, hot plastic everywhere! Will buy the Oscillating tool today for the second pod.

Thank you

[@timnevitt2993]

thanks for video i used as a reference where to cut out

[@kennethbearden7364]

Thanks for the video Carlos, very informative. Can you tell me if the speaker pods on my 2017 would need the same mod for the Ground Zero Yellow Basket 6.5 Coax speakers? And what about my Tour Pak pods?

[@ssbolts88]

So I just did this last night to fit a pair of ds18 pro zt6's in my 2020 road glide. And it seems the magnets stick out of the pods far enough to push the outter fairing out to the point I can't get it back on

[@BlackEyeSRT]

I keep seeing these yellow baskets in alot of videos and I see you use DB drives as well which is a better bang for your buck for coaxials and running 6x9's in your lids

[@MrILLryder]

Carlos what’s the mounting depth of the pods?

[@superduty131]

Yor thoughts on eliminating the pods? Installing fairing brace kit?

[@Heavy69Metal]

How about using a 1/2” spacer ring?

[@Heavy69Metal]

Do you have a video on eliminating the pods totally?

[@markshorter2057]

Why deaden the whole pod? Is there any benifit to this?

[@mattneiderer2203]

Can yiu cut them while they are on the bike? Im goin to order a PnP kit from you very soon!

[@kennethbearden7364]

Carlos, I did not give you all the info on my bike in my comment below. It is a 2017 Harley Ultra Limited FLHTK. Thanks.

I’m looking for a good shop in Houston Tx for the same installation on my 2021 RGS with the chop guard . Any suggestions?

Jay Ford with Kustom Wings

Thanks

As many times that you have made that modification, I am very surprised your cutout was that sloppy. I would think you would have a template to make a minimal exact cutout.

[@joshrobinson702]

Its just a quick example to help people like you and me. Be grateful he is willing to teach YOU secrets.

[@Kendrickshayesjr]

Honestly a speaker ring would be better and less the work

[@benjaminhilton1960]

I was thinking the same thing! Like damn, don’t do a hack job

[@davidbustamante9755]

I would have made a mold and fiberglass it out to accept the speaker.....not a long term fix

[@sepikmees]

Protect your ears while cutting!

Thank you
