Default flash that works?

Getting ready to install a rz4.2000d with jl audio speaker in fairing and tour pack. Has anyone found a flash that worked on a 2014 ultra limited. Trying to decide if the flash or magic box is the way to go. I was also checking out the audio control lc6i but not sure it will do what is needed on these bikes. Thanks for any input.

If you decide to go with the Magic Box I have one new/unused for $65 shipped, they are $85 shipped from the mfg.

I really think it has a lot to do with your dealer. Mine dealer is not that cooperative on the flashes. I'm giving up on the aftermarket. I went back to the stock flash stock system .Now everything works on my limited .

I think they are understandably worried about it not working, & the customer not being happy, and not wanting to pay for the time. I gave mine specific instructions in writing, they made me agree in writing that if it didn't work it was on me, & I paid 1/2 hour either way. At that point they were happy to do it & wheeled it right in while I waited.

I went to the dealer with a paper with instructions on what to do . It did not work with the new 1.83 radio update. Paid the 55 dollars with tax Waited for the experimenting. Printed out the flashes from the forms Went back to the dealer ( they tried a couple of the different flash ) The flashes did not work on my LIMITED I had no Fader not much bass or treble controll had no volume . Paid another 55 dollars so I have an extra 110 dollars in a system that dose not work. Went back to the stock system and flash . Now everything works again. It seems like the flashes work with the Street Glides with 2 speakers but not on the limited with 4 speakers .

The flash worked great on my '15 Limited Low.
