Default Bag Supports

I reinforced my bags cheap and it works well. I used closet rod holders and 1.5" pvc pipe with circle velcro to hold them in place. I notched the closet rod holders so a hose clamp tightens them up snug. It cost me all of $4 and works well at least for me.

Rob those were the prototype and I had to remove a bit of material around the latch but work well for the 10's in the rear.

Lately I've been using wood dowels wrapped in vinyl, and screwed in from behind the latch and to the ring, but could be attached to the inside of the bag for a rear mount speaker.

Rob, I got them from a friend and I do know that yooper made them. I did have to take the lip out a bit so the latch would work. I have no idea that you were involved with them. I did talk to yooper after I first got them and I believed I sent him pics of what I had to do to them.
