Scott, I don't know about the other fairings, but the Premeux has a slot molded into the inner fairing that a "single din" radio just slips into. You fit the sleeve of the radio into the slot (just does fit), then slip the receiver into the sleeve. Perfect fit, and no mods needed. Doesn't vibrate or flop around, and is as solid as being mounted in a car. The only mod needed is to drill a hole in the back for the wires to exit. After you get the wires through the hole, just silicone up the hole, and with a cover, all is water tight.

This one has a 3x8 inch cut out for use with a marine mounting kit which has the box the the radio mounts in and the cover there are many different type to be found

After installing my splash guard I didn't like the way the radio mounted it was loose so I used gas tank strap and came from the top bolts that mount the fairing to the bike and ran it up to the radio on each side, it is very solid now.

+1 I don't think there's a way to do it on ebay. Just add the fairing to your cart, and when you go to check out, there is a box to type in a promo code or coupon. Enter the coupon there, and it should bring the price down to $315.
