For those of you who own the 665. I have a question.

I've been doing research and here is what I think I figured out.

1. If you want the directions to come through the speakers or headset you have to buy the navigation interface module?
2. Either install method you still have to use the AUX input jack to hear the XM radio over the speakers?

Thanks,

Robert

As long as you plug in the aux, you can here directions and XM through the radio. The interface will allow you to listen to CD player or radio and still here directions.

Yes. Some have another AUX input installed on the back of the unit. I don't have the link handy, but if you do a search in the forum, you'll find info on it.

Don't get burned - the NIM only works with the Harley version of the Zumo 665. There's a firmware difference.

http://www.hdbomm.com/Aux_Cable_on_Harmon_Kardon.doc clear directions for wiring the rear aux jack. I added the rear aux jack and it works great with my "Garmin" Zumo 665.

I have installed the Zumo 665 but can not get the XM to work. It displays "upgrade XM server". Any help?

Call Garmin, probably need a firmware update which it does via a computer. Download from the Garmin site, plug the 660 in the usb and follow its instructions.

Yes, you can get nav instructions via an aux input - either front or back, but only while you are using that input. If playing the CD or radio the nav squelches the audio and plays the nav stuff. A y-cable is used to connect up to the aux for std music... In the end it works like the CB or intercom.
