2007 24V Riders Edition... Wanting to install towers

[rougeqc21]

I have the speakers in... I just need to know something. The tower is not predrilled for speakers. Is there a specific method to go about mounting these puppies?

Picture supplied of the tower in question. Thanks for the help and advice!

I run the wires from amp up through the rear tower leg leg on port side.then they just follow tower tube forward then back/up and into the rear cross bar.

That is an easy tower to fish the wires through, like KKO said. The wires will be completely hidden except where the pop out at the speaker. Ive posted pics and some how-to on it. Try the search button, if no luck, post up and I can either find or repost the pics.

I guess my real question though is, do I have to drill holes in the actual tower tubing, because there are none.

And I would greatly appreciate the link to your previous install. I could not find it. Thanks alot

yes you will havee to drill holes for the wire to come out of the bar up top.here is one link http://www.tigeowners.com/forum/show...39&postcount=2

Alright, so the hole I want to drill is the one in the last picture correct. On top, do I simply drill where I please then?

Anyone in Austin, TX want to help, would buy some food + beer

Kinda. The tower leg and gasket will already have a hole. just match up the hole in the gasket for the hole in the gunwale. For the top of the tower, decide where you want to mount the speakers, then drill a hole next to each speaker clamp, on the bottom side of the cross bar. When you fold the tower down, you will see that the joint where the tower folds also has holes for the wires to pass through.

yes when it comes to up top drill where you please but try and be careful so you dont drill into the wires for the tower light its kind of a drill and hope just go slow and you should be ok..I always face the holes down so it makes it harder for water to get in and get traped.
