Default Polk audio mm651um/mm651 6 1/2

Has anybody used the Polk Audio 6 1/2 mm 651 or mm 651um speakers in thier fairing? What are your opinions, how was the fitment?

They have great reviews and great prices on amazon. I purchased a pair and are awaiting my adapters from Hawg Wired before the install. If they sound like crap, I'll put them in the truck.

Any advise would be appreciated...

I have the mm6501 in my boat. 2 pairs. They will definitely be my next choice for the fairing.

Do yourself a favor, add an amp. They will definetely sound better than stock. Speaker baffles will improve sound too. They love clean power.
