Like its 1996 sibling, the 1997 Ultra Classic rolled out with a batwing fairing and no factory audio setup at all. That empty pocket is exactly where a Diamond Audio MS-HD9813 or Soundstream SG-V2 / WHD.9813 goes, using the proper install kit and wire harness to adapt this 1998-2013-spec radio to the 1996-97 fairing. That unlocks wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on a bike that predates any factory touchscreen system entirely. Add a HogPlay Media Box behind the new radio and this Ultra Classic picks up real streaming apps too.
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.

A Diamond Audio MS-HD9813 or Soundstream SG-V2 / WHD.9813, fitted with the correct kit and harness, drops into the 1997 Ultra Classic's batwing pocket and hands over wireless CarPlay and Android Auto at the bars.
From there, the HogPlay Media Box pairs behind the radio to unlock Netflix, YouTube and other streaming apps for stops along the ride.
There's no factory radio to fight on a 1997 Ultra Classic, which makes the upgrade path simple: a fairing-matched CarPlay radio up front, then the HogPlay Media Box right behind it. That combination unlocks Netflix, YouTube and the full range of streaming apps, installed plug-and-play with the correct 96-97 harness and no permanent changes to the bike. It's a straightforward way to give this full-dress tourer a modern cockpit while keeping its classic batwing lines intact.
