I didn't, but since you've responded to so many of my audio threads and questions I felt obligated to give you a response.

Geez "Nutz" ... For 135.00 I don't think you could go wrong ... We'll all eagerly wait for your evaluation.

Harley wants $499, so I've been contemplating those same lowers on Ebay. Will be very interested in seeing your review.

Agree. But if the pods do fit well, then it's going to be a very cost effective approach.

I just bought the CVO grills and discovered that the screws are a buck apiece. They came in today and I used the Polk screws instead. Can't believe a buck for a little black screw. Of course I couldn't believe the cost of the CVO grills either.

yeah that's what I've been telling everyone who throws the Polks in the rear pods to do with the CVO grills.
