Installation Overview
- Preparation and Removal:
Start by safely removing your Harley’s fairing to access the factory stereo and speakers. This process requires some basic tools and care to ensure you don’t damage the fairing or paintwork. Be sure to place the fairing on a soft surface, like a blanket or towel. - Installing the Source Unit:
The new source unit from the Rockford Fosgate kit replaces the factory stereo and fits perfectly into the existing dash. It’s designed to integrate with Harley’s wiring system, allowing for easy installation. Follow the included instructions to connect the power, ground, and audio wiring securely. - Upgrading the Speakers:
The HD9813SG-STAGE1 includes Rockford Fosgate’s high-performance speakers, which deliver significantly improved sound clarity and volume. The installation process involves removing the factory speakers and mounting the new ones using the provided brackets and hardware. These speakers are built to handle the demands of motorcycle audio, ensuring reliable performance in outdoor conditions. - Testing and Tuning:
Once the components are installed, it’s time to test and fine-tune your system. Rockford Fosgate provides a Tuning Guide to help you optimize the audio settings for maximum performance.
Optional Add-On: PAUX Universal Auxiliary Input Port
For riders who want even more functionality, Rockford Fosgate offers the Punch Universal Auxiliary Input Port (PAUX). This optional accessory allows you to connect external audio devices, providing greater flexibility for your music options.
