What baskets? At least on a '14, the baskets are part of the lid - not an extra piece. Are you talking grills?

I'm referring to the basket that goes behind the speaker to protect it.

I just installed my HAT 5x7's without the baskets using the screws and screw clamps that can't with the speakers. Didn't need the baskets. Thanks for everyone's help

What year bike? Like onewheat said the basket is molded into the lid on a 14 or 15. You have to cut it off.

Yea, I have a 2012 and it is a separate piece (basket) that the speakers screwed into. I just used the screw clamps and didn't purchase the basket. Saved me over 30$.
