Default Road King aftermarket fairing

I have a 2004 Road King and I'm looking to add an aftermarket fairing for stereo purposes. I have found the fairing I want to buy, but am not sold on their choice of stereo. Does anybody have ideas on a Marine grade stereo? Also, I want to add audio hand controls for the stereo. I know that Harley makes them for their models that come with a stereo, but are the able to be added to a Road King and hooked up to an aftermarket stereo? Any help would be appreciated!!!

Kenwood makes some pretty awesome marine stereos. If I were buying a new one, I would buy one with a USB port in the front for using thumb drives. Kenwood also has remote units you can mount on your handlebars and actually looks pretty good.

I have a Woody's fairing and put a hundred dollar Sony deck in it - he designed a water shield so you don't have us a marine deck with his. www.woodysfairings.com

ditto on the exact same set-up and you can definitely hear the tunes. my wife riding her heritage behind me can even hear them!

it's sealed on the inside and w water tight cover on the front. the head unit also has aux input jack and a usb to plug memory stick or ipod into it
