Where do I put the hockey puck antennae on my 09 SERG?

Also, I assume the XM feature is played through the auxillary setting on the HK, like my iPod?

If I want to leave my Riders Claw mounted for my iPod, and be able to use the XM, how would you wire it since I would have 2 cords to plug into the face of the radio.  I want the installation to look as clean as I can get it.


Thanks

You can mount the puck on top of the radio inside the fairing. If you are handy you can install an Auxiliary input in the back of your radio, there are directions on line, then get yourself a Y adapter (3.5mm stereo) and you can plug both the Ipod and the output of the Zumo into it and the wiring will be hidden. Note that you will only be able to play the XM or the Ipod at any one time and if you use the Zumo for directions on a trip you will not be able to play the Ipod as this will interfear with the output of the Zumo. Or just transfer the songs you have on the Ipod to an SD card and install the card into the Zumo, the songs will have to be in the MP3 format to work with the Zumo and that way you won't have to worry about the Ipod. You can still install the Aux jack in the back of the radio.

Thanks bissjim!  One question, how do I change the format of the songs.  Right now I have all my music in itunes on the computer.  Can I move all of these to windows media player and then into the Garmin or onto a SD card?

Do a google search for mp4 to mp3 converter   There are several free ones out there and work great

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I would like to know if anyone has found a way to increase the font size for the alerts on the 665.  I can't read the alerts without moving my head down and closer to the screen.  I have the dash mount on my 010 CVO Ultra.

You can use itunes to convert them to mp3 click advanced tab click convert to mp3, then ya gotta deleted all the aac duplicates (or not)  plenty in the support chat area if you search there.
