The 1996 Ultra Classic is a full-dress batwing tourer that left the factory with no audio provisions whatsoever — no radio, no wiring, nothing behind the fairing shell. That's an opportunity: with the proper 96-97 install kit and wire harness, a Diamond Audio MS-HD9813 or Soundstream SG-V2 / WHD.9813, both cut for the 1998-2013 batwing pocket, fits this bike cleanly. That brings wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to a machine decades older than Boom Box, and a HogPlay Media Box behind it adds Netflix and YouTube for the long haul.
Headset Bypass Required
The factory radio locks CarPlay behind a paired headset. A HogPlay headset bypass removes that so CarPlay and the USB port work without one — then a Media Box or Piglet adds wireless CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps.

With the correct fitment kit and harness, a Diamond Audio MS-HD9813 or Soundstream SG-V2 / WHD.9813 drops into the 1996 Ultra Classic's batwing fairing and delivers wireless CarPlay and Android Auto where no factory radio ever existed.
The HogPlay Media Box then pairs with that new radio to unlock Netflix, YouTube and streaming apps, turning a blank fairing into a full media cockpit.
A 1996 Ultra Classic starts this upgrade from a clean slate — no factory radio to work around, just an open batwing pocket ready for a fairing-matched CarPlay unit. Once that's installed, the HogPlay Media Box connects in behind it and unlocks Netflix, YouTube and the whole streaming lineup. It's a plug-and-play add, no cutting or splicing into anything original, giving this full-dress classic modern media it never had a chance to carry from the factory.
