I know this thread is pretty old but it just helped me out a ton. My local harley dealers (called 3) didn't have the 35 pin connector but hawg wired makes a breakout harness for the rear speakers that I found at Dennis Kirk for $35. This comes with the connector prewired for rear speakers.I'm in MN and was able to get it next day. Looks like the bike will have tunes for Memorial Day.

Default XM Addition

Hi Carl
You indicated that it's possible to add XM. I have a 2013 RG. I'm going to add rear speakers as you indicated but I would like some additional information on adding XM to the 35 pin connector. Would you have the information, parts, wiring and directions to add XM/Sirius to my 13 Road Glide?
Vince

This thread presumed that the reader already had a working HK radio in the bike. For example, the second plug (the one with the red covered wires) is the Base Audio Connector harness which provides the wiring for the handlebar audio controls, front speaker wiring, power and ground to the radio, etc. Said another way, without the BAC, you'll have no power to the HK and no handlebar controls.

You can find the parts you'll need in this link:

http://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche....=13&A=658&B=61

Just go to check-out after you've selected the parts you want and you'll get HD p/n's for them.

As for purchasing parts, my suggestion would be to find a dealer or two in the vicinity of your visit; call to speak to the parts manager to make arrangements to order and pay for the parts you need.

Good luck with your project.

Just FYI, Carl sold his bikes and is now retired from anything HD. Good to see people still using this thread though.
