Default 2 DIN head unit
Hi All
I can buy a 2 DIN conversion unit for my 2013 RG, but can I fit (wiring wise) a 2014+ HD head unit?

What makes you think that you can get a 2014+ factory head unit to work on an older model bike?

I also believe you would be better off financially by going with an aftermarket head unit

I would buy a Soundstream unit for older Road Glides which is direct fit. Expensive but worth it.
