Default Pulled the trigger...now I wait

Ordered the RZ4-2000D and the Pioneer TS-D6902R's today. I already have a Sony head unit installed and a pair of Infinity Kappa 5x7's ready.

Now I'll just impatiently wait for my Roadglide to come back from the dealer. (Crashed)

Thanks for all the great advice, I like that the answer isn't ALWAYS "throw more money at it".

I got the Hogtunes lids. Also got some water repellent speaker cloth from AAWAV.

Lots of reviews coming soon...hopefully soon.

I will await the updates patiently. Think this winter I am going to do the same thing, debating on the pioneers or the BT's.

if you do not like them, you can always sell them here (Gannicus likes to keep his shelves and attic FULL of audio stuff )

Copy that. . . If you do not like the pioneers. I will definately take em off your hands. I will always buy stuff that has been vetted on this forum. You would be surprised at the guys who do not read this forum and have no clue where to begin with thier set up. The Pioneers, fosgate amps, soundstream amps and Titan II's will ALWAYS sell!

Chat(Bob),

TIP: try not to stretch the water repelling fabric too much when installing...

if you are bored while waiting on the bike to come back, do a little water test with the fabric.... not going to kill it LOL

My local Harley shop is charging me $384.48 to have my lids done in Denim Black (Ouch)
I think that price sucks, but it's part of a huge repair and I'm choosing to have them do all the work except the audio.
