2014 Mondo bow speaker install help

If you look at your other cabin speakers, they are mounted into the same type of plastic and use standard black sheet metal screws. Just don't overtighten. The plastic will strip.

serreid - where are you located in OR... Portland area?

I would probably suggest stainless screws in the bow. Most likely will get wet and you do not want ant rust.

Yes I live In the Portland area. I do see in my exhile box that they do come with screws...

Cool. I've in the Couv and from June - Sept we are regularly on the Columbia. Perhaps we could meet up in the future.

Newty and Trayson (locals) are kinda scary, speaking from experience. I can mentally prepare you for a meet and greet though...

Hello everyone I am looking for advice on how to install bow speakers on my 2014 Mondo. I bought Xhile 6.5 for all my 6 speakers but I have to somehow cut holes in the plastic in the bow. I see there is already speaker wires there on each side from the factory. Does anyone have any advice on how to do this install?

Serreid....I just did this in my 2014 mondo and I used a 5 inch hole saw.....piece of cake.

Awesome thanks. Yea yesterday I installed my 4 cabin Exhile speakers so in the next week or so I will be doing and cutting the front 2. I will go buy a 5 inch hole saw. Is there any specific type of hole saw I should buy?

I couldn't find one for less than $35 so I bought a Harbor Freight special....a whole kit with like 15 sizes for $10... 5" being the largest......I know they aren't top quality but I don't use them very often.
