Angry New Speakers for Sportster (Pyle)

Does anyone have small speakers for their handlebars??
I bought the Pyle PLMCA60 model. We're having a terrible time with the instructions. They basically suck. I can't even figure out how the speakers should be mounted on the bars, forget the wiring part. And the package is even missing bolts. Ugh!!!

Pleeease help!!!

THANKS!
Liz

Liz, I noticed the same thing when looking up some sort of direction for a bud who bought a pyle amp.. Their documentation sucks to say the least.

Hang tight.. let me take a look at some documentation.

ok what exactly are you having an issue with. The instructions say to use either the P shaped clamp or the Z shaped clamp (depending on which install you want). I would use the P shaped clamps and then wrap that P clamp around the handlebars on each side then secure them to the bottom of the Pyle speakers and tighten them up in the position you want the speakers aimed.

Default plug in

Hey, we got them on my handle bars, but now we are having trouble finding the 12 v plug to hook them up to.
Any ideas??

If you have an 04+... You can buy this which will allow you to use your current factory harness without chopping into it. You unplug a connection (of the wire harness) under the seat plug this cable into both ends and it gives you 2 more ends to plug stuff into. Part # is 70270-04 and I think it goes for like $15
