Default HD CB installation comments/tips

I am seriously contemplating installing a HD CB/intercom set up and wanted to hear from others that have tackled this....Problems, tips, positives, negatives...I currently have a J&M dual unit and would like a nicer looking set up...I am curious to hear from Y'all.

I installed the Boom Audio Music and Intercom Kit (BAMI), pn 77108-09 in conjunction with installing the HK radio and CB module on my '04 EG and wrote-up the installation in this thread:

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...tra-glide.html

Since you have an '07, the installation would be largely plug and play (except for removing the gas tank to run the wire harness for the passenger connection and controls); you won't have the wiring issues I had with the handlebar switches or interconnect harness.

The BAMI kit essentailly allows you to have the CB/Intercom without the tour pak on the bike for the passenger headset connection/controls. The kit replicates what's on an Ultra except for the mode select switch for the passenger.

The BAMI kit works the same as an Ultra. It's a pricey proposition (purchasing the CB module, BAMI kit, etc.), but I wanted the clean installation, rather than the handlebar mounted J&M CB and everything works as intended.

I know it's not cheap ...i think i can get it for about $600...I think it would be worth it as much as i use the CB. Not the BAMI kit...i was gonna piece it together EBAY style....Install it in the Winter after i get all the components...

Did you have to get the dealer to change anything after you finished...like the settings on the radio?
