Default Arc Moto 602 in fairing PODs, cutting holes

Thought I'd share my thoughts on the 602's in the fairing PODs. The 602's work well with the BT brackets, but to me the 602's sound better with polyfil loosely around them or slightly enclosed to enhance even more of their Bass quality. The POD serves as a structure / enclosure to hold the polyfil. Checkout my version of opening up the PODs for increased air flow but it keeps the structural integrity.

Hack away Guys. Oh! BTW, thanks for all the great advise you guys post.

AWESOME! I use polyfill on all my installs, good work man.

Might have to add your pod mod to my bag of tricks...

I see what you were talking about, looks good. Here's what I did with the 602's and the Pods.
