Hogtunes HT- Lid : Saddle Bag Lids without Speakers - Manual (Page 3)

Wiring the lids to your amp.
The 4 pin connector will plug into Hogtunes NCA 70.2-2 channel amp, or
Hogtunes NCA 40.4-4 Channel amp. If your using another brand of am-
plifier, you will see that the wires near the 4 plug are labeled. Simply cut
the plug off and wire the lids to your amp.
If you have cut the plug off and want to wire to another brand of amp,
there is an easy way to make sure you have the correct wires going to the
correct terminals on your 6x9. Get an AA or AAA battery. Take one pair
of wires (inside the fairing) and hold one wire on the flat end (negative) of
the battery. Touch the other wire to the “tip” end (positive), and on top of
making a scratchy sound, you will see the speaker move in, or out. If you
see the speaker move out, you have correctly identified the positive and
negative wires to your 6x9’s. If the speaker moves in, simply reverse the
wires on the flat end, and the “tip” and the speaker will move out, which
confirms the correct wiring. No matter what, make sure both speakers go
out.! If wired where one goes in, and the other goes out, this is called “out
of polarity” and you have almost no bass and your friends will laugh hys-
terically at you..
Striker Plates:
Each kit comes 4 new “striker plates” that will be applied on the outside of
the lid. Use your factory lids as reference for how and where these go. Like
all other adhesive parts in this manual, clean the area first! Also remem-
ber that adhesive works best at room temperature or higher.

The supplied grommet is “split” to make installation much easier once the
wire is in the bag. In the above picture, the white circle is showing a “plug”
that can easily be removed. If the only wire you have going into your sad-
dlebag is the speaker wire, leave the plug in place. If you have a second
wire for such things as USB power, or a music device interface, removing
the plug from the grommet will allow the second wire to also pass without
having to drill additional holes in your saddlebag.
Remove the 4 screws (highlighted with white arrows above) that hold the
cloth flap in place. With the flap off ,slide one of the metal bars out from
inside the flap as it will be used for new lid. The screws just removed will
be re-used.
With the flap off, fold the factory lid all the way over, exposing the 5 screws
highlighted above by white arrows. When these are removed, the factory
lid will be free from the saddlebag. These screws will be used to install the
new lid so keep them handy.
