No wires were needed to be cut. The rear amp is removed and is replaced by an adapter ( if you look at reply #1, it is the black adapter in the lower right corner) which allows the stock woofer speaker plug to used to drive the rear speakers.

The breakout harness in the fairing that connects to the radio and main harness has the splice.  This splice is where the amp's rear channel is plugged into the main harness that runs to the left saddle bag and is used to drive the rear speaker.

Thanks for the info! 1 more question. Does this effect the rear saddle bag power locks? The wiring for the locks is in the same saddle bag harness as the amp and speakers

15, 16 & 17 CVO Street Glides do not have Power Lock Systems.

Mine does. Appearantly then pre '17s do not.

My guess would be that it would not effect the the power locks. The Breakout harness connects only to those wires that come out of the radio.  In the saddle bag only the wires that go to the amp are effected.

2017 CVO Street glide do have the power lock system.  I know mine does, and I love it.

I didn't know that!   So your 2017 CVO Street Glide has power Saddlebag Lid Locks?    I have to figure out a way to add them to mine.    I hate having to go from side to side locking and unlocking all the time.    My wife always has to stick her stuff in both saddlebags...

I used soundz on my last 2 bikes.  I just saw Pete in Daytona and upgraded to his latest version of his own speakers. I think hybrid audio is working with him but it's his design.  With the arc 600.4 my system soundz amazing. . Really happy with his products and I had no problem letting him install all of it. In fact.  I m prefer it. Also added his speakers mounted on the lowers.  And I am water cooled.  For me, those days are long gone spending a day or more doing that.  He's the expert so I let the experts do the work. I can tell you that I am very happy with the results. .  Stuart.

I believe the ultra cvo bikes have the electric saddle bag and tour pack locks. Stuart

As for the electric saddle bag locks and the aftermarket sound systems, Soundz does not use your existing wiring system and install new wiring to your saddle bags for the speakers. (New holes and grommets in your saddle bag with additional plugs) One reason I did my own install on both my bikes doing it my way vs their way. On my '15 I removed all wiring harnesses used for the rear system and fabricated plates to cover the factory plug holes in saddle bags and ran my wires through those plates, on my '17 I used the existing harnesses and created new wiring harnesses to plug into making a plug and play system not affecting any factory wiring and or spicing and additional holes in saddle bags.    J & M will not provide a system for the New '17 CVOSG because they have yet to figure "the elaborate wiring system" (John's words not mine) used on the new bikes that have electric saddle bag locks to create a plug and play system. Biketronics I believe will work on the '17 with electric locks for they have created a breakout harness as previously mentioned.

Small world and I know the DND is also close... we should plan a Eastern PA Cvo met and great.

We should do that.   Sounds good.

Spoke with Mike on Friday, going back and forth over email.  I’m replacing amp and speakers on 2018 CVO ultra.  Having solid discussions on using LL or DSR1.   I really want to keep the stock head unit for the additional info it give, but I’m all about sound quality. 
I’ve sent him my EQ file and going from there.  Cat Eye, are using boom 6.5 and line levellers?

Nice!! Mike is a great guy.
