Default What else do I need?

I have a 2020RGS, with stock radio, and plan to add an amp (Arc Moto 600.4 - 150w / channel @ 4 ohms) and 4 GZ coax (if I can find them) in the fairing and tour pack speaker pods. (Fairing for me, Tour pacpods for wifes enjoyment).
What else is needed / suggested for DIY installation? I am fairing comfortable with wiring. soldering, etc. Is a BTBOC or AH plug and play the way to go for connections? Stinger type amp install kit?
For ease of install I have really contemplated going with the older Rockford Fosgate fairing amp system, but many persons have said can get much more for less $$$ if your willing to do the work.

You sure those speakers will fit your tour pack pods? I'm pretty sure they wont fit stock pods.

Have you head unit flashed with either the RF flash which retains fade if thats important or the 8/2 flash, which is the flattest I think currenlty.

Also a pair of pac sni-35 to convert speaker level inputs to RCA's.

Metra or stinger amp install kits work well enough. Most guys here use 8awg kits for amps.

Don't forget some 1ft, if you can find them, RCA cables. Also I like running my own new speaker wiring with better grade OFC wire and I also wrap them in wire loom,

I used tesla tape to secure loom ends on the wiring, also to cover up terminal ends so they dont touch anything.

There is a pig tail that harley sells that connects to the plug where your fairing comes off.....for the turn signals maybe...cant remember. Anyway, that splitter pig tail on the brake side faring is what I used for my remote connection.
