Rear Speaker Pods

[Schave]

Has anyone heard anything more on upgraded speaker pods for our Raptors? Looking to move up to 6.5" co-axials in the rear.....and I'm sure I'm not the only one!!

Nope, you're not the only one! I would be interested in upgrading the stereo as well. It will be interesting to see what others are doing.

I've seen two but cannot confirm Raptor Fit.

There's this one sold a crutchfield: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_327BRB65U/SSV-Works-BR-B65U-6-5-Rear.html

There is also one sold by Mabett on Amazon, but is currently out of stock. Mabett is the one I want to try so when its in stock I'll let you know.

Im not sure if these pods will fit our Raptors as there is not as much space available with the cross brace on the roll bar

I can confirm that they will NOT fit. I had mine in for an upgrade at a local shop. They have almost completed the install, but realized the rear pods wouldn't fit with the cross bar support . They did ask if they could remove it...............
So, I'll be needing some just for our Raptors ASAP. They went ahead and dropped in an upgraded set of 4" for now, but that won't do once the top comes off in the Spring.

Which ones did you try?

MTI just released theirs finally, but the empty pods are $400. Seams a bit pricey to me but its the only thing on the market at the moment

wish they didnt look like a 1980s build where you still use the grills that come with the speaker. Too bad tney couldnt integrate a removeable cover like oem.

I ordered a set, we will see how they turn out.

I have an extra set of MTI Raptor pods new in the box. I love the set that I installed. They are a nice fit and sound great.

I will sell my extra set for $225 + shipping from 23226. Please let me know if you want them.

Do these make a substantial difference? Without making changes in Forscan it was my understanding that full range signal wasn’t sent to the rear speakers. Did you add an amp?

Sorry for the delay. So yes I removed the B&O amp and installed a JL VXI. It sounds absolutely amazing.
