New member Intro and Question
Hi All!
My name is Mike, but i am not a Harley owner. I do custom Marine Audio and on occasion I get calls about doing some audio on bikes. I have a questions RE an 09 Street Glide head-unit.
Owner is looking to add a 3.5mm headphone socket. Can anyone tell me if the there is any kind of AUX output on the back of the head-unit, or possibly on the front that the owner is not aware of?
Thanks in advance for the any info and help you can give.

there is a 1/8", 3.5mm whatever you want to call it on the front of the stock radio. This is an INPUT, not an output.
There is no aux output on the stock radio. The headunit can be sent to Iron Cross Audio and they'll slap in a set of RCA jacks for you at the preamp stage.

Kyingame,
Im in G-town, so just 15 minutes west of Charlotte and about 15 minutes from the lake. I was going to send you a private message, but did not see a drop-down for that. Does this site offer that function?

you obviously know what you're doing but just pointing out the radio is high powered so... might be better off converting it to RCAs using a PAC/Scosche adapter and then to 3.5mm from there. I dunno.. cause I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish.

Typical head-unit's internal amp output to the speaker leads is about 15W rms to a 4 ohm speakers. Depending on the headphones, this is not a lot of power. Maybe a bit much for some earbuds. I was actully looking into what Metra/Access have as I carry that line, but im sure there is a plug-n-play type converter.
