Default Batwing Blastin'

I am going to replace the original speaks on my streeter. Has anyone gone with a larger diameter? Reason being I have a set of real nice 6 1/2" Alpine component speakers left-over from a past project.

It's getting late, I'm having visions of breaking out my Milwaukee Saws-all. Just one more beer. . .

You can save your self a lot of trouble and hassle if you just buy Hogtune Speakers. They are well worth the $100.00 and PEZ is on here all of the time. Do a search most of us already have them, and I have not hear anyone say a bad thing about them or PEZ.

Good Product, and very good Customer Support from PEZ too.

Forget the saw. Get the HOGTUNES. They are rated for bad weather use, are your Alpines? They are waranteed for like 20 or 25 years, and the company stands behind their warrantee and has a great service reputation. They fit right in the stock mounting location, so no alterations are needed.

Regards,

Bill

Go for it since you already have the Alpines. However, Hog tunes and nice speakers.
