Lots of info on the Facebook forums. Guys have gotten it wet and it fogs up but clears off within a few hours.

Water sealed buttons. Says right on their paperwork that it's weather resistant. Nothing about waterproof.
Not my money. Just passing along the info.

ramseyusmc:
Anyone know which amps use the Factory wiring on a Harley? Or are easy to install?

J&M is plug and play with the HD junk, but be aware you are taking 2 OHM for HD and 99.9% or real radio world is 4 OHM, there are many threads on here regarding this issue. If you are changing head unit, then I'd look at Rockford-Fosgate https://www.rockfordfosgate.com/products/selector/motorcycle-kits/. If you want to stay simple and just change amp and speakers, J&M is cheapest and easiest with decent sound. If you want full on kick ass, Pete and Custom Soundz rocks, you would just have to find him at a large rally and have $2,500 to $4,000 to spend, but workmanship and sound quality is unsurpassed and customer service is beyond expected
RivRaptor:
Do you realize that if you have speakers in your tour pak that you have 3 amps in 3 different places with speaker wires leaving each amp to its own 2 speakers respectively. So unless your going to buy 3 amps & a head unit....you get my drift. Optimally you would buy a head unit and 1 nice amp to power all the speakers but because of location you would have to run new wires to the bags & tour park, and then deal with splicing into wires to get through your oem quick disconnects or adding new ones.
P.S.: I added the HD Speaker amp kit awhile ago to my lowers cause I didn't want to cut up the bike even though I known better sound would result by sh_t canning the stock system, and the one thing I don't like is when adding the new amp to the side bag the new HD quick disconnects are a pain in the ass to disconnect as opposed to the stock ones when cleaning / servicing the bike. Hope this info helps
