It's because the grills are mounted from the inside. You have to remove the outer fairing and the speaker enclosures to install them. It's not an easy or a fun job.

Mine from Harley were peel and stick. Most likely you got the ones that go on the rear Tour pack speakers.

3 holes is for the fairing speakers and they mount from the inside. The tour-pak speakers are 4 hole.

If they are speaker grill "accents", like the title says, they would most likely be the stick-on type and, obviously, not have any mounting holes.

If they are speaker grills with three mounting holes, like he says in his post, they are installed by removing the outer fairing and the speaker enclosures like shown in this diagram:

The older ones,[like my '06] were peel and stick. No way would I take the time to install those screw on ones, unless I had to take the outer fairing off for another reason.
