Hey there

The unit is from a company called Biketronics--they are in 1000 oaks CA, and Mike and Donna there are very good people. The unit your needing is called the "retro radio" kit and costs $200. You should be able to get the RR kit, a Sony Radio, and speakers for about $500

Their number is 805-777-7209

Hope this helps...........PEZ www.hogtunes.com

Don't know if this will help but:

When I had my '99 Electra Glide I put a CD/MP3 player (battery operated, Walkman type) in the saddlebag and connected it to the AUX input on the face of the factory radio via a long cable I routed under the gas tank. The drawback is that you have to have a wired remote to change songs on the CD/MP3 player or else just let the music play in the order it was recorded. Worked for me for 5 years.

get the bezel and mounting kit for less than 200 bucks, and find a nice radio to put in it.
