Default Wanting to put some sort of speakers/MP3 IPod hookup - Suggestions?

Hey all,

I went into my local used harley dealership today (where I bought my street bob and they have weekly bike nights) and I saw on a road king, that this guy put some small chromed speakers by his switch housing, and a mount for his IPod and it looked very clean. No loose wires or anything. Has anyone done anything similar to this on there Dyna? I'd LOVE to have some music while riding without having to buy a bagger. I run my ipod headphones under my shirt and put one in my ear sometimes, but its illegal to do so from what I've heard, and the last thing I want is to get ticketed for something so dumb.

So, does anyone have any suggestions? I'd love to see what some of you have done.

Cheers,
Adrian

this is what i make and use... turned my fork bag into a stereo! it rocks!!!
my current stereo is 10watts... the one i am makeing now is 100watts and i am using marine speakers... it is taking a bit to make the amp stay cool while in the fork bag... the fact that it gets warn is really not a big deal but i do not want it to ruin a speaker. here is the link for the one i have now
