Default Bt 4180

I've replaced all my speakers with Boom stuff which was okay for awhile, but it want better now. I'm looking at the Biketronics 4180 package with 7.1 and 6.5 speakers. Is this a plug and play thing? Or do I still have to do lots of wiring. Do I still have to buy a 10ga power line and ground? I haven't dealt with amps in 20 years. I haven't had the time to call the company so figured I would ask here.

the BT kits come with all necessary items to install and aside from running 2 wires to your battery it's pretty much plug and play.

Just clarify please. The instructions for the 4180 say to ground it to the frame on the triple tree steering head area.

old video I'm sure.. just as some of my instructions are at the top of the audio forum. I haven't had a chance to go back and modify them to ground directly to the battery.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but wait: I should be running a ground wire back to the battery even for my PA RZ4.2000D?? Is there a particular reason I should undo everything to change that, or will I be good to go with my current setup (running the ground to the empty screw-hole on the top triple tree)??
