There's some videos on YouTube that will walk you through the process.

Remember to run both Power and Ground to the battery from the amp.

Getting the radio mounting bolts out is a bit of a PITA, made much easier with a long arm hex with a ball end.

The Mille Pros didnt fit in my sreet glide.. didnt feel like cutting up the 6.5" adapters and making a spacer plate out of ABS plastic..My buddy owns a custom car/motorcycle stereo shop and the are a hertz/audison dealer. It takes a bit of work to get them to fit and they are a very power hungry speaker (always better to overpower a speaker than under power them, under powering causes excessive heat in the voicecoil). I went with the Audison Voce 6.5" speakers and they definitely slam i have 290W rms x 2 running to them and i wouldnt change a thing..just my 2 cents

You already are on your way as far as components go.....just pick this up and you're done. Biketronics are expensive but a quality product and their customer service is second to no one. This kit gives you the faceplate, handlebar control adapter, radio mounts etc. This is all you need. BT1005x
