Default Ultra Classic Console-Communication Socket on Tank

Does the communication socket on the tank console detach from the panel?

I am installing a CB on my 2010 Road Glide and would like to use a custom glass insert with a drilled hole for the communication plug on the console.

Also... any idea how far back the plug will go back? 2005? 2006?

Thanks for your help

Yes.The Din plug is secured to the panel by a metal nut that holds it to the console. The other end unplugs under the seat.

Thank you for the quick reply.

I am hoping to find an older post 2006 panel with the plug and then transfer the plug to the glass panel I will be installing on my console instead of using the ugly panel HD uses.

I am guessing 2006 is the cutoff date. I have a 2010. Any ideas on this?

Thanks

Also in the Boom!™ Audio Music and Intercom Kit (77108-09A) that Harley has for using the intercom with models without the Tour Pak, the rider headset plug is next to the dash down by the seat.

I just ordered this for my 14 FLHTCU. Could you please tell me how to install? Does the whole fuel tank console need to be removed? Does the CB plug need to be removed as well? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

Take the seat off, there is one screw under the nose of the seat and there are two screws under the gas lid. Then it just lifts right off.There are some wires to unplug under the console also, this has been a long tme ago. iirc there is a set of clamps holding it onto the console underneath. This video is about another installation but it shows the disassembly of the console. hope this helps
