I knew you would chime in.
lets hear them right now.

 

I put the Hogtunes lowers on and added the Hertz EV 165. No cutting, modifying or moving of anything. I was even able to get Hogtunes to come off the dimensions of their pods and speaks.

 

Cool. Will check those EV dimensions.

Thx!!!

 

Based on the posted specs, if those fit the AD's will fit.

 

Just an addition to the thread about fitting speakers in a liquid cooled lower. As previously posted, I managed to slide a Boom Stage I into the lower without any actual internal pod fabrication. When I put my AD Design CX62s in there, I ended up with a ugly half inch plastic spacer ring. I considered doing a fiberglass buildout but it was going to be incredibly costly if someone else did it or super messy and time consuming if I did it so instead I took apart my lowers again and pulled out the piece that had the vent molded into it...the piece that sits against the radiator and in front of the fan. My first intention was to use a heat gun to melt the plastic but black ABS is very unwilling to melt so I grabbed some modeling clay to determine where the magnet was hitting. Drew my lines and slowly cut away the plastic so the speaker could sit flush. I then used tinfoil tape to shape the semicircle cutout. Put 4 layers on inside and out before covering it with dynamat tape. It's surprisingly solid. I also test fit the grill rings/spacer from the ADs and sadly found they also would not sit flush in the speaker pod so I used the barrel sander on the dremel to take off the edge of the speaker base until it also would fit in the countersunk ring of the pods. Here are some pics of the process. It looks fully stock and I'm actually a little bit proud of this.

Excellent work Cp!!

 

Nicely done!!! You have every right to be proud.

 

So I didn't relocate the bottle....

 

434, what did you use to space those out!

 

I started with knock off "TCMT" 6.5" vented lower speaker pods. I cut the speaker enclosure off and trimmed for the vent. Then used Metra 82-4300 1" Universal speaker adapters. Two each side. Less than a bill for everything off Amazon.

I used JB plastic weld between the first adapter and the pod along with screws to make sure it sealed up tight. After it setup I removed the screws and then flipped the second bracket over so it was a smooth taper. Using the same holes I reinstalled the screws. I rotated the speaker 5* so as not to use the same holes needed to secure the adapters. Pre-drilled the 8 holes for mounting speakers. BOOM...

Happy modding!

Note that I also used the same adapters to give depth to upgrade my tour pack speakers as well.
