Just thought I would post about an install I did for a buddy. I asked a while back if a 6.5 PRV would fit in the stock pod, and Haze said they will with a little trimming. He was right as usual.
Used a cutting wheel on a dremel to take away some of the inner structure in the pod, then the sanding wheel on the dremel to clearance a little bit of the "boss" in the lower left section of the picture as you can see it. Speaker dropped right in no problem. Also bent the spade connectors just a little bit to clearance inside the pod. I used some "lathe" screws to attach the speaker to the pod, and it re-installed just as it came out. This was on an '18 model SG, and after the pod was out of the bike, it was actually easier than when I did these same speakers on my personal bike ('13 SG).
