Kicker 8" HLCD Tower Speakers 500W 4Ω
When the ride gets loud, speaker placement and projection matter just as much as volume. These Kicker 8" HLCD tower speakers give UTV riders a bigger horn-loaded cage-audio option for open-cab sound that carries farther.

Built For Open-Air Riding
KICKER lists high-output compression-horn design, lightweight neodymium motors, UV-resistant polymer enclosure cans, customizable LED lighting, 354-degree can rotation, and stainless-steel mounting clamps. The system also meets or exceeds ASTM standards for UV and salt/fog exposure.
How They Fit A UTV Setup
Fitment is universal and depends on cage space, tubing, clamp position, roof clearance, windshield clearance, wiring route, and speaker aiming. KICKER lists the stainless-steel mounting clamp as fitting most tubing, so confirm your cage size before installation.
