Right. Like I said, I've seen those grills with pre mounted horns. Still curious about the clearance. Would love to see an install pic once you're done, if you don't mind.

The horns come attached to the speaker grills already and they soldered the crossovers to the horns.
I've seen their site. They appear to have thought of everything you'd need (pics of how to mod speaker pods, different bolts to mount speakers, premounted horns, etc.). Looks like a nice package. Good luck.

When running the power to the battery did you run both wires down the same channel or split them. Any pics of the area to run them, i think i know where you mean

Yeah, i got everything. Just the wiring confuses me. Except running power to the amp, that's easy

Just take it one wire at a time. Power and ground to the battery. run the Mids next, Then the horns. Plug in your RCA cables and then your remote amp turn on. Make sure your gains are at zero.(counter clockwise). Put in your main power fuse and start 1K test tone and target voltage.

What voltage should I see coming out of each speaker?

They preset everything on the amp before sending it. But I could double check
