I received my color matched lowers with glove boxes but I am a little confused about adding the "kit, Lwr Speaker" that are also color matched. I assume the the kit replaces the glove box inside and top portion of the lower fairing but this is all black, plastic. What does the color matched speaker pod replace?

Speaker Enclosure left & right PN: 76000368/76000369 $41 each
Gasket seal, adhesive-backed (2) PN: 25700311

CVO speaker grills PN: 76000065 $31 each
Grill screws PN: 10200105 (10) $4.80

Boom! Audio fairing lower speaker kit Instructions

Or you can go with one piece speaker boxes from eBay for well under $100, without grills.
Bert, The gasket seal part number 25700311 isn't showing up on HD web site. By chance is this number from another company? Recommendations on a substitute?

billablehours, posted this.
I cut a piece of 3M adhesive tape in half off the roll and used it instead. Seals great and holds the speaker box in place for the install.

Not familiar with 3m adhesive tape. Duct tape on everything. 😁. Is this double sided? What thickness?

I like the looks of these, any chance you remember the seller you bought them from? I need to invest in a pair.


Thanks!

I went with the $71 ebay pods that came in vivid(gloss) black already painted that matches my bike. I would recommend them as they are much cheaper and one piece but keep in mind I have no experience with the HD pods to compare them to.

Yes, it is the 3m double side tape that is used to attach automotive trim. 1/2" It has red peel off film. Every auto parts store has it.
