The 1999 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy closed out the model's original Evolution-engine era, running the 80 cubic inch (1340cc) Evolution V-Twin one last year before the Softail line moved to the Twin Cam in 2000 — a fitting send-off for the fat-spoke-wheeled cruiser that defined the "Fat Boy look" through the '90s. Like every Softail of its day, it left the factory with no radio, no screen, and no way to run navigation or music from the bars. The fix is the 7-inch HogPlay Media Screen, a bar-mounted display that brings wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to this classic Fat Boy.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 1999 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy left the factory with no radio, stereo or touchscreen to bypass — so instead of a workaround, you add your own. A standalone HogPlay Media Screen is a 7-inch head unit with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, live Maps & Waze navigation, calls and streaming built in — we recommend the Screen 7 Pro with its onboard DVR drive-cam. Most riders settle for Bluetooth-only kits that leave the phone in your pocket with no turn-by-turn directions; this puts it all on the bars instead. It mounts to the handlebars with basic power and ground and comes off just as easily, so reach out to the HogPlay team if you'd like a hand. (Media Box support on Screens is in development.)

The '99 Fat Boy carried the solid disc wheels, staggered shotgun dual exhaust, and low-slung Softail stance that made it an instant icon when it debuted a decade earlier, all backed by the smooth, torquey pull of the 80ci Evolution motor. It's a bike built for cruising, not for factory electronics — which is exactly the gap the HogPlay Media Screen closes.
Installation keeps things simple and reversible. The 7-inch display clamps to the handlebars in clear view, then wires to a switched power source and ground — no dash cutting, no fairing to modify, no permanent changes to the Fat Boy's clean factory lines. Pull it off later and the bike goes right back to stock.
