Sorry man, if it is indeed a 87 flh!? There is not going to be much in the aftermarket. I am sure you could fab something in the bag for a head unit or blue tooth. I think that generation of bagger had 4" fairing speaker. Lids and lowers would help out alot, as they should be easier to mock up speakers.

I don't have any pictures of it unfortunately but I took out the cassette/radio out of mine a few months ago and put in a jvc I picked up from Walmart. The fit in the stock radio housing was loose so I put on the one the new radio came with, spread the tabs out a little on the factory one and put it together. It was a tight fit but not so tight it would break something. No alterations were made to the inner fairing at all. You can get a retro kit from biketronics to retain your handlebar controls if you're so inclined but I opted out because it really doesn't matter that much to me. The factory speakers suck and yes they are all 4 inch. I replaced all of them with Polks.
