capacity to handle power under continuous demand, not instantaneous power handling that over time can damage voice coils.

and corners of the saddlebag lid before securing. DO NOT overtighten the screws.
3. Once the template is secured, use a 5/16" drill bit and drill
holes in the template. We suggest drilling every segment to
make sawing easier.
4. Begin cutting the template using a jigsaw or airsaw. Cut along
the slots in the template, being careful to follow along the
middle of the slots in the template. When cutting, be
sure the saw blade stays in between the edges of the template.
Cutting into the template will lead to fitment issues.
NOTE: DO NOT cut the segments of the template until all of
the slots have been cut. This will help maintain accuracy and
fitment for the grilles.
5. Once all sections of the template have been cut, check the
edges for any irregular areas. Use a file and/or deburring
tool to to smooth out any sections. Carefully remove the tape
from the saddlebag. 14. Place the adhesive backed plastic cable tie mounting tabs to the
inside of the saddlebag.

supplied Phillips screws. Be sure to hold the grille with your 15. Route the wire along the inside of the bag and secure to the plastic

8. Remove the saddlebags form the motorcycle.
9. Mark a hole on the backside of the saddlebag for the
saddlebag harness. We typically recommend 4" down from
the quick release hole and 3" away from the front edge of the
saddlebag. Use a Step-Up bit to increase the hole size to
3/4". DO NOT make the hole larger than 3/4".
10. Route the left and right harnesses toward the rear of the
