Another Dirtstiff Speaker Thread

[ths61]

Just ordered a pair.

Ordered the foam baffles also. I wonder will fit or make any difference in the fairing.

Not much room in the speaker recession for foam baffles.

... Can somebody who has just gone from stock to the 638's tell me what type of connector is required? Are they just "plug and play" or do you have to modify either the harness or new speaker connection? I just want to have everything I need before I get started......

The speaker holes line up. The connectors fit. Just have to address the width @ 9 and 3 (cut or bend).

Remember to install speakers upside down (tweeter on left, midrange on the right). They won't fit otherwise.

I cut these to fit and have polyfill behind them.

Is the speaker grills attached to the top cover. What Tupperware do I have to remove to get to the speakers. Also how does the Tupperware come off and what tools are required to get it off.

The speaker grills are attached to the top cover.
The top cover pulls off.
There are 3 wire harnesses attached to the top cover (2 tweeter and one button (trip/temp/etc.) console).
Tweeter harness come off by squeezing the connectors and pulling them out.
A small straight slot screw driver helps disconnect the button console harness inserted from the left side. Harness pulls off to the right.
A Phillips screwdriver is required to replace the speakers.

There is a YouTube video that's about 2 min long that shows that procedure....
