Front pods
So I'm getting close to starting my install on my 15 SGS. What are most people doing with the pods in the faring, I'm installing Hertz 6.5 should I keep the pods or remove them and use rings or something?

You have two choices. Mount the speakers inside the stock pods as shown in the video below. Some cut holes in the back of the pods to let the speakers breath better and add some polyfill to help with sound quality.
The other choice is to replace the pods with the Biketronics speaker brackets as shown here with the BT speakers. The brackets are not sold separately online but you can call and order them. Mention HDForum and get a 10% discount.
You will also need a Biketronics Line Leveler if using the stock radio.

I installed hertz hcx165 in my pods, mounted on the outside like factory. They fit but were dam close to the inner so I added a couple washers to the bolts between the pod and inner. Lots of room then.

Adding washers to move the pod could also cause problems alignment the rest of the pod mounting bolts.
