Is there a way to still use the handle bar controls with the new head unit?

Thanks in advance
If you do replace your head unit Iron Cross Audio will buy your HK head unit.

I'm 99% sure it's the radio, not the switch.
If you are out of warranty Iron Cross Audio can fix your radio.
They fixed mine on my last bike. Quick turn around.

With mine the unit stays on but the speakers just quit and i have to turn it off and back on to get them to work again. so i think this might be a good time to upgrade.

With any of these Sony units, is there an adapter for mounting in the dash or does it just slide then lock in?
