Heading to OR Thursday to do some work on my 16 Limited and I am sure I will need some help from the experts. I have a Focal sport amp, AW6.5/BT30 for the fairing and MM652 for the TP pods. I also have the BT brackets and 2 LL with the breakout harness. I also ordered the PAC TR4 in case I need it.

My first question is regarding water-resistance of the fairing speakers. I already made cutouts in the Hogtune grills to mount the tweets. I know the AWs have aluminum cones, so do I need to do anything else to help prevent water damage?

Next, do I need to connect the amp turn on wire or will the signal come from the Boom 6.5 HU through the Breakout harness? PAC TR4?

TIA,
Dave

Thanks for the help HAZE and JMC. That just leaves the turn on signal question for now. If I need one and use the PAC TR4 would I use a speaker wire for the signal? If so, which one? Would that allow me to turn off the amp by turning off the speaker switch (assuming my bike has one). I haven't seen my bike since Oct but my old UC has one.

Within the 9 wires that come out of the amp speaker REM harness (4 you will use for the front speakers (white & gray) - 4 you will not use unless you run rear speakers(Green & purple) there is a blue wire - I spliced this wire into my cigarette wire to turn the amp on using disconnect in the pic
