What "light housings" did you use and how did you mount the speakers inside them? Would just the two speakers on the crash bar provide enough sound when riding at highway speeds?

You did a really nice job!

I used shallow KC light housings, some a little deeper would be easier to get speakers into. They weren't deep enough so I had to rivet on an extra ring and find shallow speakers. I then added light visors to spruce it up and not look so much like half of a coffee can. The speakers are held in with the mesh the same as the ones form Uniq Cycle. The speakers on the engine guards would most likely be enough. We toured one summer with only the setup from Uniq Cycle and it was good at most speeds, over all I was happy with it. They have another in line amp now, I see, that will boost the power and would must likely be all it needed. I wanted to see what Sound I could come up with so I added an in line amp I found (when in Portland, Oregon this summer), and then small sub woofers in the light housings. We are very happy with it. Yep Alberta's home but we sure like to get out to tour BC and the USA, lots of beautiful country to see.
