About 1997 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Models

1997 didn't change much for Electra Glide audio: base, Classic, Classic Shrine, Standard, and the FLHT/FLHTCI sidecar rigs all carried the same AM/FM cassette head unit Harley had used for years, mounted in a fixed-size fairing opening. There's no Bluetooth, no USB, and no path to a smartphone connection through the factory hardware, no matter which trim level you're riding.

HogPlay's aftermarket CarPlay radio line is built to drop straight into that same fairing cutout, giving every 1997 Electra Glide trim wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto without any custom fabrication or extra wiring. That covers the base Electra Glide and the FLHTCI sidecar equally. Browse the fit guide on the aftermarket radios page to confirm your exact model and year.
