A few people have them. Do a search on ' 6X9 ' speakers.

Check the link in my signature, for a 'play by play' on how to do it. Good luck !!

I did the cyclesounds lids that Drew, Dr. VTwin, is talking about. Also bought them from him at a great price.

Here is the write up I did a few weeks back. If you have some time to read: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...ed-fender.html

I don't have a set, but I have a friend who has the cyclesound set up with an ARC amp (4 channel mounted in saddlebag for fairing and bags, he has a SG), that thing is loud, at speed if he turns it up, I can hear it very clear......
