The first-year CVO Electra Glide arrived with factory custom paint and trim that set it apart from a standard Electra Glide, riding on Harley's 99-05 base AM/FM fairing radio. That radio was a fine setup for 1999, but it has no touchscreen, no Apple CarPlay, and no Android Auto. HogPlay's path is an aftermarket CarPlay radio built for this fairing, which brings both wireless CarPlay and Android Auto to the bike.
No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way
The 1999 Harley-Davidson CVO Electra Glide shipped with the factory factory touring radio (1999–2005) — a solid unit in its day, but no Apple CarPlay, Android Auto or touchscreen. Fit an aftermarket CarPlay radio (SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio or Aquatic AV) for wireless Apple CarPlay — SoundStream, Boss and Diamond Audio include Android Auto natively, while Rockford Fosgate and Aquatic AV gain it once you add a HogPlay Media Box or Piglet, which also unleash Netflix, YouTube, streaming apps, Mirror Link and AirPlay. No headset bypass needed — that's a factory-radio thing, not aftermarket. Rather not swap the radio? A bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen adds wireless CarPlay and Android Auto too.

The 1999 CVO Electra Glide kicked off Harley's Custom Vehicle Operations line with factory paint and finishes you didn't see on a regular Electra Glide, wrapped around the same long-haul touring fairing riders trust for real miles. Behind that fairing sits the 99-05 base radio - a simple AM/FM head unit that was never built to talk to a smartphone.
Riders upgrading a 1999 CVO Electra Glide today are almost always after two things: turn-by-turn maps on a real screen and easy access to their music and calls. Brands like SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio, and Aquatic AV all build fairing-mount head units for this chassis, and most ship with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto built right in - no dongles, no fuss.
Once that new radio is in, a HogPlay Media Box layers in Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcasts straight from an SD card or USB drive - no phone data required. Prefer to add Android Auto and screen mirroring to an existing setup instead? A USB Piglet does that job. And for riders who'd rather leave the factory radio alone entirely, a bar-mounted Media Screen is a straightforward alternative.
