If you wire an amp in the TP, use this to keep it detachable. My plug fits right under the seat.

Yes. All speaks plug in the same. Really take your time and get the right speaks the first time.

Check the vid sticky, hit bike night, follow some good leads to your local shops demo displays etc....

As for the BT bundle I would for sure get:
BT 355s
BT Pod removal brackets

Amps
4180
ARC Moto
Hertz HDP

Budget amps
Soundstream
Etc

Fairing Speaks
DD AW6.5 w AT28

Rear pods
Depends on remaining budget.

I pretty much went with an all Biketronics set-up (to begin with) for my '14 Limited

4180 amp
355 line levelers
Speaker brackets
Break-out harness
7.1 speakers

Then I ordered the V-Twin tourpack speaker adapters and Arc Moto 602 speakers for the rear.

That set up was fine last year for 10k miles, but I was left wanting a better sound.
Since the bones were in place, I swapped the front & rear speakers for Hertz (MLK & MPX) and I'm much happier.
I love the MPX in the rear and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
I'd like to try the DD AW6.5 in the fairing, but I'm done. DONE!
