Factory codeFLHT
EngineEvolution 1340
Factory head unitNone from factory — add an aftermarket CarPlay radio
Factory USB locationNone

The 1997 Electra Glide carries on the same no-frills batwing-faired touring formula, and like its 1996 sibling it left the factory with no audio provisions. A Diamond Audio MS-HD9813 or Soundstream SG-V2 or WHD.9813, cut specifically for the batwing pocket, adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to the dash. Because 1997 has no factory radio pocket, the correct install kit and wire harness are what get the fit right. Layer a HogPlay Media Box in behind it and this bike gains the streaming lineup it never shipped with.

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.

We also stock universal parts that fit the 1997 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 1997 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide

The batwing-matched Diamond Audio MS-HD9813 or Soundstream SG-V2/WHD.9813, installed with the correct kit and wire harness, mounts into this 1997 Electra Glide's fairing pocket for wireless CarPlay and Android Auto despite the bike's original lack of audio.

Behind that new touchscreen, a HogPlay Media Box unlocks Netflix, YouTube, and streaming apps for a classic tourer that never had a media system at all.

A 1997 Electra Glide left the factory with nothing but an empty fairing pocket, which makes a HogPlay Media Box paired with its new aftermarket CarPlay radio feel like a genuine upgrade rather than a replacement. The Media Box plugs in behind the batwing-cut touchscreen, plug-and-play once the harness is run, opening up Netflix, YouTube, and streaming apps for long-haul rides. With the install kit handling the fit and the Media Box handling entertainment, this nearly 30-year-old tourer ends up with a media stack most modern bikes would envy.
