The 1999 Electra Glide Standard opened the Twin Cam era for Harley's faired tourer, pairing that big-inch engine with a comfortable batwing fairing built for miles. Its factory AM/FM radio handled basic tunes fine for the time but has no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and never will. HogPlay's path is an aftermarket CarPlay radio built for this fairing, bringing wireless smartphone integration to a bike that predates it by two decades.

No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way

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

About the 1999 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Standard

The 1999 Electra Glide Standard sits at the start of the Twin Cam touring era, a full-fairing Harley built for weekend rides and cross-country hauls alike. It's a straightforward, dependable machine, and the factory base radio matched that philosophy - simple AM/FM, no frills, no screen.

Riders bringing a bike this old back to daily use almost always want the same two things: Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Neither was remotely possible in 1999, so the fix isn't a firmware trick - it's an aftermarket CarPlay radio built for the fairing, from brands like SoundStream or Rockford Fosgate, most arriving with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto already onboard.

Once that new radio is in, a HogPlay Media Box adds Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcast streaming straight from an SD card or USB drive. Prefer to keep the stock radio? A USB Piglet adds Android Auto and screen mirroring, or add a bar-mounted Media Screen instead of touching the dash at all.
