Forgotten Hole?
Now that I have your attention.
The tourpak Pods. I know Junes did make some decent ones.
I am looking for a pod that could hold a SV 165, or a PRV 6mr500.
I had to grind most of the stock pods and get rid of my switches even with a 1/2 inch spacer to get the MMats to fit. I have seen a set fabricated out of metal and painted to match that looked damn good.
But, those were a one off. I did run the polks for a minute but they could not keep up with the rest of my system.
Thoughts or questions welcomed.

I'm curious as well. In the future I might be interested in a set to tinker with. The only larger ones I had seen have no allowance for the switches. I wonder if holes could be cut to allow them to fit? I was also curious if they could be modified (or if they did already) set out a little farther than stock to reclaim some of the passenger space lost by aftermarket grills.
Another monkey wrench thrown in is are they Rushmore or 2013 and lower?

Juice, with yours being a Rushmore, I think the eglide pods as much as it pains me to say it are the answer. (Sidebar, I have zero use for that company after a bad experience). I don't think June's is making them for the Rushmore's. T has the Eglide pods and said damn near anything fits, he even tried to wedge another 880 in there I think. Another option is the Vtwin adapters. I had Hertz SV I'm with those but is basically a nice spacer.

I just checked out their site, doesn't look like they have anything for 14+ king tour.
I may have to try to make something this winter, however, I do not think they will look as good as dale's.

Eglide goodie is what I have and they do indeed fit damn near everything I have dropped in there.
I do have a 1/4" spacer installed mainly to provide to a clean and secure install when swapping them biatches out every so often.
Currently have the Rockville Component kit and they drop right in.

I just installed a pair of Hertz SV165s in my tour pack pods. Its a 14 ultra limited and took some work with the heat gun to make room for the magnets. I ground down the edge of the passenger switch and only have one screw in it so I can angle it a little bit. Im running 1/2 spacers and they just fit. The stock speaker covers fit so it is a pretty clean install.
