I will be installing it in the TP this time.

Why?  I just went the other way - been in the TP on the last two bikes, but inside the fairing this time....

Just in case no one has ever seen it, this is what the radio looks like when the BT is installed properly. (It has a CD in the radio at the moment as well)

V. different to the HDI ones.....

Where does the AUX appear on yours?

Looks to appear to be above the Phone. Question - Is this Bluetooth kit still available from HD and is it wort installing or would using a GPS with bluetooth through the AUX be money better spent.

Jim, I actually just did this for the first time a few days ago. When the AUX has something plugged in, the "phone" soft key appears on the next page. Only 6 soft keys are available so it rolls over to a new page. Thought it was kinda cool.

It is kinda cool!  You have to admire the HK audio system design - they thought of everything.  The way the phone and GPS stuff fully integrates to be controlled by the handlebar switches, things like the way the screen splits to show the Nav on one side and whatever else you are listening to on the other, the pressing the switch that gives you the ETA from the Nav system.  A fantastic piece of work start to finish!  It's such a shame that the Nav system is so lacking in capability other than just one destination, and that they stopped the BT (probably it wasn't popular because of HD's pricing policy), but it really is brilliant.

I took pictures yesterday of the screens but too tired to post this morning. Give me a few hours.

Hell, who needs sleep?

This is with an audio jack plugged into the Aux plug:

You can see here I actually have a hand held microphone that works with the BT. Not the best clarity, but it'll do for when I don't have a helmet.

I'm surprised there isn't an add on yet for HD (that's High Def) Radio

I'm surprised that the FM is not RDS....
