Default When installing Infinity 62.11's in a 2013...

Is there an adapter that's available so that the 6.25" speaker fits into the 5.25 opening? How exactly is this accomplished?

You will need an adapter to install the 6.5" speakers. I used the Arc Audio ones as they are the shallowest out there. Why is this important? Clearance with the outer fairing.

I just did it with the adapters from Amazon below. Install them with the deep end at the bottom and they clear the fairing. Fit perfectly.

JL Audio SAR-HD-EG/SG-650 Speaker Adaptors for Harley Davidson Electra Glide & Street Glide "Batwing" Fairing,

Oh yeah, I used the 52.11 5.25" Kapps in the rear. They sound a lot better than the Kickerscthat people recommended. But, they needed an adapter as well. This one, also from Amazon:
Universal 1" Plastic Depth Ring Adapter/ Spacer for S/2 5.25 "-6.5" Car Speakers
dco

But, the tweeters on the Kappas in the rear protrude such that the HD cover didn't fit. So, I used the ones that came with the speakers.

I found the JL adapters at Crutchfield and ordered them with the Infinity speakers. Total cost - $165 to my door.

Thanks to all of you!

Those JL adapters are very tall. I have a set that I couldn't use with my Polk MM465 speakers due to clearance.
