Default Amp for 2017 RGU?

Has anyone installed a JL audio 400/4 amp in the fairing of a later year Roadglide? I am wondering if there is room. I have already tried the Arc 125.4 that has been sitting in my garage and it was too long.
Thanks

Using the Arc RG15 (2015+ Roadglide Install Kit) will let you mount a amp under the radio. I know the Arc 600.4 and the DA Micro4v2 fit under there with no issues

There is a post in the audio section that shows the measurements of a lot of the popular amps and that would give you an idea of sizes

You really need to think outside the box. There's all kinds of room inside the RG fairing. Under the radio, above the headlights, and other places as well that aren't the typical install locations. Again, think outside the box.

I don't think it will fit unless you buy the soundzcustomz fairing mount, I know with that you can fit an xdi 600.4 you'd have to call soundzcustomz though to verify fitment.

I haven't seen it done. I'm a fan of that amp but for the trouble to install it there's smaller options that are just as good.
