The Kickers will fit in the rear pods without adaptors. You'll have to drill new holes in the pod, but that's it.

i stand corrected. strange that they would make the speakers for the driver smaller than the ones that will be playing against the wind and at the passenger legs.

What he said. You know the strange thing is the 6.5 infinitys will drop in SOME bikes without an adapter. I've done it. And then you try it on the same identical bike and you need a spacer. Damdest thing I've ever seen. Just tells me all rear pods are not created equal.

Sorry to jump in on this very informative discussion but has anyone tried the Alpine CDE-HD149BT head unit? good? Bad? Ugly? I'm having some "clipping" issues when I connect to my smartphone, so that's why I'm asking.
