Summary:  To a measured space carrying two group actions, we associate a Hilbert $C^*$-module in a way that generalises Rieffel's construction of induction modules. This construction is then applied to describe the generalised principal series of a semisimple Lie group. We provide several realisations of this module, corresponding to the classical pictures for the principal series. We also characterise a class of bounded operators on the module which satisfy some commutation relation, and interpret the result as a generic irreducibility theorem. Finally, we establish the convergence of standard intertwining integrals on a dense subset of this module.
