Yes we have. We ALL have been in your shoes but once you are done and you sit there listening to your tunes even before you get the fairing back on, there is a real feeling of satisfaction that you did it yourself and that feeling is just hard to top.
Yup. When you took the pods out you disconnected the molex connector that runs from the head unit to the speakers. The line leveler will plug into those from the head unit and you will use rca's to the input to the amp. Before you do that, get those tweeters put in the grills and put the grills in before you tackle the brackets. It will be hard to put the tweeters and grills in after the brackets are installed. Then install the brackets and your woofers along with the crossovers. That focal will sit on top of the stock amp tray and 1/8 inch drill holes on the tray in each corner for the feet on the amp with #8 sheet metal screws will hold it in place. Wiring and tuning will be the last thing you do as with everything installed you can then run your wiring behind stock wiring and tuck them out of the way.
Also, tweets are being installed on the woofs using the bracket suggested here -- I'm not sure yet how they attach -- but if you have a suggestion............??
You guys are making this difficult, I have a16 RGU and I’m look8ng to move up from the stock boom system. First looked at the stage II system and even the dealer mentioned the speakers are not lasting. I’ve now been looking at the JM Rocker for its simplicity in install system but after looking through this forum it appears I would be better to buy all components and install myself. Your forum has answered my first question regarding the head flashing by installing a line leveler.
Im unsure how much space is available for amp, any suggestions would be appreciated. Is the existing wire8ng harness used at all for TP speakers or will everything be replaced.?

looking for help
Start your own thread and everyone will be able to help you without hijacking this one. I'm sure you will get some great advice.
OK -- brackets for tweeters are wrong - they are only for the other, smaller Hertz tweeters. Now a problem. OK - I have the ML 280.3 tweeter -- How do I mount this? seems it has a threaded area on the back of the tweeter, but no hardware in the package -- I'm going down to Home Depot to see what screws will run in that thread in the back -- and then need a sheet metal plate with holes 3 1/4" apart to mount the tweeter to the stock grille?
UNLESS -- one of you has a brilliant idea for mounting these tweeters..........that's the next step in this saga ---
