This is a sub-thread of my main build thread http://www.rzrforums.net/rzr-xp-4-10…ome-build.html. The stereo ended up being such a big project that I decided to create a separate thread with more detail here.
Components I used for my 2015 XP41k:
Kicker PXiBT50.2 Bluetooth "Headunit"
JL Audio M700/5 5 Channel Marine Amp
JL Audio MX650 6.5" Coaxils
JL Audio M10W5-SH-WH 10" Sub
JL Audio HD-RLC remote gain control
JL Audio XML-WHTSC16-25 Speaker Wire
JL Audio XMD-WHTAIC2-3 3′ RCA
(2) JL Audio XMD-WHYAICY-1F2M 1 RCA in to 2 out Y Connectors
KnuKonceptz 4ga Ultra Fleks power/ground cable
SSV Works Glove Box Sub Box
SSV Works Front Speaker Pods
Odyssey PC925 Battery
More to come…
The first big hurdle to overcome is that the JL Audio sub won’t fit in the sub box because the glove box sticks out just enough that the magnet hits and it wont’ sit flush. I could only find MDF spacer rings and actually bought one and had planned on rhino lining it but the more I thought about it the more it seemed like a horrible idea.
I ended up making a spacer out of plexi glass. Its probably not even a 1/4" thick but is just enough to get the sub to fit. You can get the plexi from Home Depot or Lowes for around $20 depending on the size of sheet you buy. Its pretty easy to work with too. I just used a jig saw to cut the holes. Be sure to cut the inside first. I put a bead of silicon between the ring and the box to prevent air leaks.
You also have to make sure the sub is aligned the correct way to fit in the box. I had the best luck turning the logo to the 8:00 position which still allowed me to mount the grill so it looks correct. This is all hidden under the dash anyway so it doesn’t really matter.
Now that the sub is mounted and the box is installed another problem comes up… The storage box in the middle of the dash hits the huge grill/speaker surround on this sub.
I was able to make it fit by loosening the bracket that the storage box attaches to while installing the storage box and then tightening it back up. Everything fits like this but the storage box ends up being a little crooked. I don’t think anyone will notice unless I point it out.
