It's easy.. I bought a polypropylene mold off of ebay and cut out a template for a 220W Clarion Marine Stereo/CD/MP3 etc, 300W Kicker marine speakers and a marine flip cover. The unit sits on top of your front rack and the stereo and speakers face you. I use a layer of memory foam under it and a black bungee cord to hold it in place. It sounds great, doesn't skip and is well worth the money. Just make sure you buy marine grade equipment. It's built to withstand the elements and take a beating. I have had mine for over two years and have never had a problem.


** Just add Marine Stereo & Speakers** See below...

Sounds pretty cool. I havent heard of anyone doing that. However, I do have a burrito making station built into my quad. I get hungry riding all day.

Now if I can only figure out how to install this slurpee machine............

Well it is a 08 :o  But the georgia and texas mud comes off easier than this fla black mud and doesn't stain.

I'm thinking about doing one, but I have to dodge my rad and snorkels on the front rack

ew ew ew..I did!!!!

what a waste of time and $$$!! The sd card reader was awesome, i could cruize down the trail rockin out! the bose speakers held up to being submerged but replaced the radio/deck 3 times. As my quad has an attraction to water. Other problem was at night, when I ran the headlights and GPS it would eat the battery.. the 7o0 is amazingly easy to pull start.

I just enjoy the sound of my girlfriend screaming on the back as I pull wheelies. Music to my ears.

Have you looked at the proboxrocks.com website? They just started making radio mounts for the 4-wheelers. I purchased one for my Polaris Ranger and it is one well built unit. I love it.
