The 1999 Electra Glide Classic is Harley's full-dress tourer at its most classic - batwing fairing, hard saddlebags, and a factory AM/FM radio that was a solid setup for its day. That factory unit never touched Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, though, so HogPlay's path is a straightforward aftermarket radio swap: a touring head unit built for this fairing that brings wireless CarPlay and Android Auto along for the ride.

No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way

The 1999 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic Shrine 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 Shrine and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 1999 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic Shrine

The 1999 Electra Glide Classic set the template every later Electra Glide would follow: a full batwing fairing, locking hard saddlebags, and a riding position built for interstate miles rather than back-road blasts. It's a bike bought for the long haul, and long hauls are exactly where a modern radio earns its keep.

The factory AM/FM unit in the fairing was a fine radio for 1999, but it has no Bluetooth, no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto - there's no way to get turn-by-turn navigation or streaming music out of it. Riders adding those features aren't chasing gimmicks; they're closing a decades-old gap between what the fairing offers and what every phone in every pocket can already do.

The fix is an aftermarket touring radio built to drop into this fairing - SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio and Aquatic AV all make units sized for it, and most include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto right on the faceplate. Pair a HogPlay Media Box with the new radio and Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music and podcasts come along too, playing straight off an SD card or USB drive with no phone data burned. Riders who want Android Auto without a full head-unit swap can add a HogPlay USB Piglet for Android Auto and screen mirroring, and anyone who'd rather leave the factory radio alone can mount a HogPlay Media Screen on the bars instead.
