Speaker lids
 
Looking to add 6x9's so need advice on a good set of speaker
lids for my 15 SGS.

You looking for 6.5 or 6x9's?

I went with the hogtunes lids with hertz Mille mpx 690's. I should have them Saturday I'll let you know how they sound.

What other audio do you currently have?

I'm looking to instal 6x9's. I have a Arc 600.4 and Mille 6.5 upfront now.

Curious to know how much difference there is between the Mille 690's and the hcx 690s...

I went the opposite route, spent all my money on the lids and cheaped out on the speakers :p

I went with the Bad Dad Competition lids, my only regret is I didn't spring the extra for the LED version :p

I have some used Pioneer 6x9's atm, will probably upgrade later though ;)

Baddad lids and J&M Rokkers 5x7's, not the best speakers. I will upgrade sometime soon.

I went with Hogtunes from factory match. Lids look great, paint was perfect, but the lid seal is a royal pain and makes closing the bags a pain.

If you go the Hogtunes route for a 14+, get the speakers as well, to use the tweeter mounting bridge to close the gap. I tossed the HT speakers afterward...

I was leaning towards the Hogtunes lids and adding Hertz 6x9's , but
now I'm concerned with the seal being an issue.

The only problem with the seal is in the beginning when new. Once it's been compressed it's not bad.
