Default Finally got the stereo installed!

So after a lot of reading and a few PM's i have my new stereo installed! First i will say this forum is so helpful it is crazy and a huge thanks to tailwind for the text messages on my needs list. Haze was also super helpful when i first started looking into this months ago!The sound quality is outstanding and i am looking forward to installing some speaker lids next! I would also like to thank makdaddy for the Focal speakers and pdevore for the arc amp. All of the items i bought were in perfect shape and work well!

I used an Arc Moto 600.4 with Focal KRC 165 speakers. I have a BT LL and with the stock head unit for now. I am lucky enough that a good friend has installed custom stereos since i have known him and he helped me out big time. He did dynamat the back of the fairing and a bit inside the pods and all of the wiring looks clean! I will try a video over the weekend but here are a few pics. I do like my new speaker grills from legendary baggers!

Very clean install

The amount of stereo knowledge on this forum is amazing. Even more impressive is their willingness to help.

New bars going in next week finally also! So let's talk lids now. I have read all the threads but i would like your opinions. Is there any reason not to use the HD lids that are already vivd black for $269 bucks? I know they are for a 5x7 but cant you fit a 6x9 in there? In looking at lids everywhere after adding paint that price goes way up. Anyone have any vivid black HD lids you want to sell?

Yup, you can fit 6x9s in the HD lids.
