The 1999 Electra Glide Classic opened a new chapter for Harley's flagship tourer, wrapping a big V-twin in the familiar batwing fairing and hard saddlebags long-haul riders count on. Behind the dash sat a simple factory AM/FM radio, solid for its day but with no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto anywhere in the picture. HogPlay's path is an aftermarket CarPlay radio built for that fairing opening, bringing wireless CarPlay and Android Auto to a bike that never shipped with either.

No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way

The 1999 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic 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.

We also stock universal parts that fit the 1999 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 1999 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic

The 1999 Electra Glide Classic set the template this model rode for over a decade: full fairing, leather-look saddlebags, and a seating position built for interstate miles rather than weekend loops.

Its factory AM/FM radio was basic even by 1999 standards, with no route to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto built in. Dropping in an aftermarket touring radio from a brand like SoundStream or Rockford Fosgate fills that factory opening and brings wireless CarPlay and Android Auto aboard. Pair that new radio with a HogPlay Media Box and you also pick up Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcasts streamed from an SD card or USB drive, no phone data required.

Want to keep the stock radio instead? A HogPlay USB Piglet adds Android Auto plus Mirror Link and AirPlay screen mirroring, and a bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen gives 1999 Electra Glide Classic riders a screen-based option without touching the dash.
