I have been watching the forums since buying an RT-S regarding installing my Zumo 550 and how others have done it and I finally bought the harness and mount kit from BRP and did it myself with a little help from the How to videos on YouTube. So, here is the lowdown...
1. The BRP mount that comes with the GPS harness fits the Zumo 550
2. Go to RadioShack and buy an 8' audio extension cord for the 3.5cm audio out, male on one side and female on the other (cost $8)
3. You don't necessarily have to remove the headlight if you have a tool that will grab the cable and help you pull it through
4. The hex wrench needed to remove the 2 bolts from the handle bars is a metric #7, which is not a common wrench...make sure you have one before you get started.
The rest of the instructions and video instruction were pretty right on and it took a novice like me about 2.5 hours. Have fun and safe riding! :2thumbs:
