I have a single pair of REV8s installed on my OZ tower. The current location is a head-banger and looking for a new location for the speakers. Does anyone have a setup that will get these off my head?
BTW - I currently have the fixed brackets installed.

Spreading them out further, will have them located over the seats and out of the center floor space.

Mike,
Do you have fixed mounting brackets on yours?

Not sure what you mean by "fixed" -- I have the mounts provided by Exile.

The WS brackets I have are the fixed type. They do not swivel. If I were to spread them out, the speakers would be pointing outward somewhat. I like the location of yours and that's what I shooting for. Maybe I need to change my brackets to the swivel type.

Yes, my mounts do indeed swivel.

If you want to stick with the fixed brackets, move them straight forward to the front bar. Mount them just outside of the bimini top holes.

Joe, thanks for your suggestion. I'll look in to moving them to the front bar. I'm leaning towards getting them more to the sides and over the seats like Mike's. Will probably need to change my brackets to swivel.

Thanks man. I'm digging the color combo too. congrats on the new carport. I have the same size myself, but I closed up the ends and added a roll up door.
Ready for summer already!

1 side is on the gravel and has 3 of the Auger anchors on it (plus the rest of the regular stakes).

The other side has 2 bolts drilled into the concrete and 1 auger anchor.

It comes standard with just 4 braces between the sidewalls and roof joices, so I doubled that number and did 8.
