What did you use for wiring? I have been looking since i have most of it atleast figured out if not bought already. I didn't realize the wiring would be a pain as well lol. American hard bags has a wiring setup for a 4 channel anp in the rear but the price is a lil steep, it is a nice setup though.

I ran knukoncepts flex 4ga wire from the battery for power and ground. Ran power to a fuse box in one of my side covers then to my tour pack. All the wiring goes under the strut covers then up to the tour pack. Ran 16 gauge wire for all my speakers. Basically you just need to get about 10’ of ground and power wire, I always get a 50’ spool of speaker wire then strip your bike and start routing. Protect the wire with thread tape of some sort and take your time, don’t rush be mindful of your tire and binding of wires. Expect your bike to be down for 2-3 days for wiring if you’ve never done it before. Could only take you a couple hours though. I always made the mistake of taking on upgrades like a week or two before a big ride and trust me you don’t wanna do that you’ll be stressed.

Might your brain on this set-up, I like my fairing but like the old school look of the Heritage better, but I do enjoy my tunes.

Would that controller work mounted in the saddlebag?
