Default Arc Amp and Speakers

Once again this forum is costing me money. Couldn't resist after hearing all the raves about Firecap and the Arc amp and speakers he is selling. Not to mention the "over the top" service he provides.

I ordered a system on Friday and decided to get the bike ready for the install. Took the faring and fuel tank off so I am ready when the part arrive.

This is where my question comes in. Any advise about what else I should do while the bike is apart?

brushed aluminum gauges, the new passing lamp brackets from Kury, Dash pad if you dont have it, the GPS mount *will need to customize your dash pad* Painted inner fairing if not done already. as long as there is money, there is always something to buy!

NO!!!! Leave the Torx screws. Phillips are much more likely to get a stripped head, and since you have the Torx driver to remove them initially, there's no need to change them for anything else.
