I'm in the same boat as Jason.My wires are run through the foreword tube from the factory. speakers on one side of the boat and lights on the other.The only way I could make the new clamps work is to put a hole in the rear tube and one more hole in the boat leaving three empty holes in the tower and one in the boat. For me that is just not going to be an option.I could make the new clamps work if the wires can be removed and a Neutrik connector installed.Also I have one more concern with a reduced hang height will it move the speaker up farther thus covering some of the tube on the tower?? the reason I ask is because I have an over the tower bimini with brace brackets on the tower for the rear support arms.Man I sure hope I can make them work I sold my 485's and am starting to freak out thinking with the new changes they might not fit
