Default Cb removal

Anyone successfully remove the cb from a 91 Electra Glide Ultra Classic and still use the stock head unit with rear speakers? Just checking before replacing everything. Stereo and front speakers are fine but can’t for the life of me figure out how to hook up the rear speakers without the cb.

I’ll never use it and I like a cleaner look for my dash area.

If you dont get much response in this area i think theres a vintage section you might have some luck in. Im pretty sure theres a stereo section too. Personally id rethink the cb. They can be pretty convenient .

Why not just put a non CB dash in. More of a hassel to remove than it is worth unless you are doing a stereo upgrade.

I do not remember having to do anything for the stereo when I removed the CB from my 1989 UltraClassic. Have you looked at the verified with the wiring diagram? Unplug the CB module, and see what functions.

Yes the rear speakers feed out of the cb dash controller that I’m removing but no indication which wires feed into it to splice.

Try looking at the wiring diagrams on the HD SIP website
https://serviceinfo.harley-davidson....1991+wiring%22

1991 FLTC Ultra Domestic Model CB/Intercom (Sheet 3 of 3) should be what you're looking for

At this point I tied to the front speakers until I upgrade as the details in that manual are the same as in my shop manual.
