I'm pretty sure that guy was building amp mounts YEARS ago and selling them on eBay. If it's the same guy that sold the two small pieces that would mount the PBR300 he's solid and helped me out of jam one time.

They have a install kit for the pbr300. Everything needed to install the amp, even comes with a little fan to keep the amp cool. I'm not sure if it's plug and play. It $ 60 or cheaper than the one RD install kit which is plug and play,

I'M not sure that I'm gonna use the amp. A lot of negative views on the pbr300
It's a 2015 sgs

I just put one of their amp mounts in my '09 Street Glide. Worked great for amp. And it's NOT a PBR300. You can get much better quality amp than that.

That amp is a POS brother. The fact that dudes are trying to install external fans with it thinking that will help is a massive red flag.

Plenty of other options.

I know there are much better amps out there. I have the RF punch amp already
I was thinking of using this amp for now cause I still need to get a good set of speakers and really didnt want to buy a new amp at this time. But its starting to look like I will be buying a new amp,thinking the Cerwin Vega b52, Others have suggested this amp

I had that mount. Have a extra set of brackets for the plate in my basement. I redid them in stainless, modified and changes them to pivot and make them much more sturdy, then made my own plate shared, deburred and tumbled for clean edges and surface. Buy the large mount and drill to match the mounting feet of the amp you want to use. It was a tedious process and took a lot of hands on to make bit had 4 sets of stainless brackets at one point. Sold a few and have one spare set. So point is the mount is a good one. Way better than velcro on the radio. Notching the gauge retainers so get a bit more depth helps with wider amps.
