You're a very good teacher. Most arent as thorough when explaining installs and it makes a big difference. Thank you! I appreciate this bro.

[@andycohen9235]

Thank you.. I did install them and a DSP, incredible sound and saved over $1,200 by doing it myself. HD wanted $2,400 for the install not including the AMP and 6.5 front speakers. I did also add the Soundigital 800.4 and Hertz SPL 6.5 and WOW!!!! Thank you Carlos....

Shure do wish you had a shop in the Dallas area, nice to watch someone that knows what they're doing. Cheers!

[@newdatlas]

Excellent video! Thanks for all the tips and techniques to make this job come out great!

[@BBD40]

I recently installed this kit on my motorcycle. This is my second time installing a set. I have one small issue with the install. The 3/4 inch screws that mount the speaker and basket are too short. Yes, they work. BUT you will get about 3 threads gripping plastic. If you want to prove it to yourself install the speakers without the basket. In mechanical engineering terminology they don't have the grip length correct. I went to Home Depot for some 1 inch screws and installed the basket.

[@mannyportelada6042]

Hi there great video. Couple Of questions. Are those Rockford speakers a descent speaker. Other question is if you do get caught in a rain storm will water leak into the bag ?? Thanks

[@dandyland25]

Great video brother thanks ! Will be doing mine also.

[@thealleykatt]

great video man. couple questions: 1. does that grille just pop on/off the lid? 2. any idea where i can get replacement rubber grommets for the wiring to weatherproof the bag? thanks

[@NVSAUDIO]

4 screws hold the grill in place from underneath. They do not sell the grommets separately I have gotten replacements from Amazon

@NVSAUDIO HEY THANK U FOR YOUR CONTENTS. QUESTION. CAN I USE THIS RF KIT ON MY 2021 STREETGLIDE SPECIAL LiDS?

[@keithbell8690]

Great video Carlos. Quick question. Have you installed Diamond audio MS69CX in this kit? I saw another video where a guy used spacers and the other modified the speaker by grinding the corner to fit the inner bracket of the speaker kit.

[@flatlinerflashify]

nice work as always. question the guys that are running subs say they seal the bags... hows is that done?

[@NVSAUDIO]

I have a video coming up on that

[@RonPetersen1964]

Curious as to where you route the wires coming from the bag to the amp? Going to do this and don't have a clue as to the best place to do so?

[@scottklempke1442]

Im told I cant do this at all, with a 2015 CVO's Ultras electric locks.

[@DJ1000cc]

Where can I get the cut template for the Rockford 6x9 kit?

[@NVSAUDIO]

They do Not Sell Them separately. I would Go to a local shop and see if they would let you trace them on your lids with a marker . Or have them cut them out for You

[@mkane6258]

Carlos. I brought this kit for my 2010 ultra classic. And i brought the GZ 7x10 to replace the fosgate speakers. I was told that the GZ would go right in using the adaptor provided. My audio guy said he could get them to fit. (I think he was being lazy). How hard will it be for me to put them in myself

[@NVSAUDIO]

M Kane the grinding is a little tricky. I don’t blame him , I hate putting 7x10s in a 6x9 lid . It’s quite a bit of grinding to make them fit plus you have to remove the rubber cap on the magnet so the lid will close and it still hits a little .

[@rogerfernandez1426]

Do u have video or pictures of that on a lid with electric locks? I appreciate all your videos and it help a lot of us guys who like DYI.

Hey brother I got a bagger and I bought some atv speakers from Walmart and stuck them in my lids and not getting the punch I want I went and bought a 600 watt amp just for them and still not getting punch should I just add a 8 or a 10 the atv speaker are mid not coaxial I swear when I have the lids open lil they punch pretty good so idk what u think?

Can I get just a kit with the grills ,adapters and the cut out template. I don’t need the speakers tho ?? Tks

[@frankstiens4454]

What do you suggest comparing the new 14sub kit from rockford? I went to Sturgis and was quoted $4700.00 for stage 3 and dual 10' sub kit w/400&800 watt amps Thanks for these videos

[@Tom-jw1pe]

Sound like your not a fan of the Rockford speakers.lol.. nice work... do any other company make a kit for a roadking blue tooth controlled?

[@NVSAUDIO]

I love Rockford Fosgate products My issues is with their 6.5 inch motorcycles speakers and the fact that their amp is only 400 watts . The fit and finish of the to Rockford kit is second to none , I just wish they offered 2 levels . What they have now is a level 1 I would love to see a level 2 with a 800 watt or 1200 watt amp , a waterproof dsp and more powerful speakers . I love their 6x9s I love the quality of their amps just need more power

[@Daliekw]

Can you use Diamond MS69CX with this kit? I saw one of your videos where you had to use spacers to complete the install.

[@NVSAUDIO]

If you use spacers you don’t have to cut or grind anything they fit perfectly

[@Daliekw]

@@NVSAUDIO I'm sorry for my ignorance to this I'm new to this. So after I use the template to cut the hole all I need to do is use the spacers and mount the MS65CX speakers? Where can I find the spacers if that's the case?

Does this Rockford kit fit 05 ultra classic???

[@lukecyphers7831]

Did you you say 7x10? How's that fit?

[@adeluciajr]

I looked at this kit hoping to convert my CVO 5v7 lids to 6x9. RF grill is smaller than the CVO stock grills so it won't work. Hoping to avoid the adapter route. Anything out there that you'd recommend? A cut-in kit that would be a larger cut-out/grill space than the original opening.

[@keithbell8690]

American Hardbag.com has 5x7 to 6x9 conversion kit for OEM Cvo speaker lids. Enter 5x7 to 6x9 in the Search engine on their website. If you don't see what you like there try garage bagger stereo website.

[@NVSAUDIO]

Anthony De Lucia, Jr. I’m not a big fan of converting the 5x7 to a 6x9 . The adapter makes the 6x9 sit really low in the bag plus it lets water in . Here at the shop we make custom plates at convert the 5x7 to a 6.5 . Or we just drop in a Beyma 5.25 ( almost a drop in fit )

[@youngblood02busa]

Hey Carlos is it possible to have this kit and swap out the rockford 6x9s for hertz or diamonds and it still be flush and water tight

[@NVSAUDIO]

Keith Sweat yes , we do it all the time . Works best with the hertz neos .

[@tomginsbach2470]

And its still water proof?

[@xander11167]

Can you use a dremel to make the cut on the kit?

[@NVSAUDIO]

Yes but I hope you have a steady hand . The dremel spins fast and it hard to control. I definitely recommend a cheap jig saw

[@youngblood02busa]

Hey so I have this kit front and rear speakers and love the sound quality plus it’s waterproof but is it possible to add let’s say diamond audio 6x9s in the same kit. Im asking because I’m getting 2 8” diamond audio mid range or sub speakers in my saddle bags

Can you just buy the lid template and speaker bracket without the RF 6x9’s? Not really sure about the small magnets on the RF 6x9’s.
