    If the 3rd gens are anything like the 2nd gens, there's a lone bolt on the passenger side of the upper radiator support. Swap the bolt to a grade 8 from Lowes, then use a piece of angle iron to make the tight 90* so the speaker hangs "flat" between the grille and the radiator.

    Been hanging a 100W speaker of similar design to that kit off that bolt for a few years now.

    Edit: The bolt just under the winch remote cable in the black square thingy.

    My siren speaker is mounted to the crossmember like the horns are. It's a whelen slim speaker and fits perfectly. I'll take a picture tomorrow.

    You can also mount em to the aluminum inner bumper, Whelen makes a bracket for the gen 2 taco's that mounts on the driver side crash bar.
