J&M Tweeter and Mid Range Speakers installed
I just installed in 30 minutes J&M's new Performance Fairing Speaker Upgrade w/Black Tweeter/Midrange in my 08 SG. pn# HCUS-09GTM-B. Unplug and replug no wire splicing or cutting. Just playing in the garage, they are a lot clearer and louder than the stockers. Actually have base now. Toooo cold to ride here in Michigan so a road test will be later. This is a link to the ones I bought, chrome coils are same money for those that want them. Saved $10 from MRSP on flea bay and free shipping too. http://www.jmcorp.com/ProductDetail....S-09GTM-B&PF=6

They look great. I'm thinking about upgrading as well. I don't want to change out the head unit, so these speakers would be a good alternative. Please post again in a couple of months about the longevity and weather issues (if any).

Their web site has a picture install. To fast of a project for me to take photo's, LOL. As far as weather ...they advertise that they are waterproof and have a 2 year warranty. One of the biker rags also did a install.

I took off my trunk and installed a set in the fairing a few weeks ago and LOVE them! the sound is awesome, no need for an amp. With the stock speakers i used to have it full volume, just to hear the music at 50mph now ive got the volume at 1/2 at 80+ and its loud and clear... the speed "volume" adjustment actually seems to work now! They look awesome too! I dont think i can say enough good things about them... I can only imagine the sound if you installed them in the rear speakers also. Ive washed the bike and didnt have any problems with getting the speakers wet.
I also installed the hogtenna hidden antenna, it works very good as well, I took off the trunk and didnt want to re-mount the antenna and for $35 bucks its money well spent, plus its powered by piggybacking on the cigarette lighter hot lead.

So the link says they are made to fit 2006-2009 Harley's, was there a change in the fairing? I guess I could see it for 2007 and up, but I didn't think there were any changes in the Glides for 06......
They look good regardless!

Larry, Your statement is correct according to the instructions. I also believe at some point the speakers are larger now than previous years. Seems like I read HD sells a speaker size adapter to retrofit.
