Default Speaker up grade

I'm thinking of going with the HOGTUNES.

1. Good move or bad move?
2. Any other suggestions?
3. How easy / hard is it to switch them out?
4. How easy / hard is it to remove the fairing?

1. Good move or bad move?
Great move. I haven't heard anything bad regarding them

2. Any other suggestions?
Order them from Pez from this site

3. How easy / hard is it to switch them out?
Easy 20 minute job. Ensure that you have the correct torque bit (size #27 if I remember correctly) for the fairing: Someone verify this for me.

4. How easy / hard is it to remove the fairing?
3 screws for the upper windshield, 2 on the lower. Just don't overtighten the shield screws when you install.

Do a search on this site. Great customer support. He even sent a replacement speakers to a member here that bought them from a different vendor. Also you get a discount when ordering if you let him know that your a member here.

I agree with Abnmarine.

I believe there are two more screws on the bottom in addition to the 3 on the windshield and two below the speakers. (If I remember correctly, You will need to turn the handle bars to get to the 2 on the bottom.) Just don't over tighten and you will be fine. If you don't have someone that can hold the outer fairing throw a quilt or something over the front fender just in case...

Pez' customer relations is number 1.

Pez owns HogTunes...........so if you order directly from him you are going to get the best service possible.

Hogtunes are #1, no better speaker upgrade for a Glide, period! Quality, price, service & warranty, second to none.

One more vote for Pez. While placing an order online today (Sunday), I was nearly complete with it and we had a power surge during a storm and the computer dumped. I didn't know if my order went through or not so I emailed Hogtunes and left a phone number for them to call me tomorrow to verifiy my order. Pez called me tonight, on a Sunday!! That's awesome service in my book. I'm in for a pair. Thanks guys
