Do you have to drill hole(s) to mount a Dash Pad?

It plugs into the back of the speakers or the radio? I am looking at the tweeter pod for the RG and now have ARC mini and 6.5's and was wondering how this would hook into the system. It seems you would need something to separate the highs to send to the tweeters (crossover?).....

Bikes, you need to spend more time perusing vendor websites since many provide installation instructions for their products. HD recently began including pdf files containing installation instructions for many, but not all, accessories, and HT has installation instructions for their products on their website. The installation instructions have always been helpful to me in determing if the accessory is one which I could comfortably install, required special tools, etc.

You are right, I have the other set of grills that came with it. I'm going to change them. These were on when I got them.

I ordered the Hogtunes Tweeter Pod instead of the HD dash pad and still spent less money. I ordered Tweeter Pod from Kustom Emporium for less than all of the other sites I visited.

I just installed this last weekend on my Street Glide. Yes, you have to drill two 1/2" holes to mount it. The 1/2" isn't a typo. LOL! I didn't really want to drill either but glad I did cuz it looks awesome IMO. The MOCO included a paper template that works well. I placed the template on the inner fairing, and used a center punch to mark the spot before drilling. Good luck.
