The 1999 Harley-Davidson Road King (Road King with Sidecar) landed at the start of a new era for the touring line — the debut year of the Twin Cam 88, a bigger, smoother big twin that gave the King the low-end torque sidecar duty demands. Riders who spec'd the FLHR/I with the sidecar package leaned on that extra pull to haul the third wheel through traffic and highway grades alike, but Harley left the classic leather-and-chrome dash without a factory radio. Add the HogPlay Media Screen and this 1999 Road King finally gets wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 1999 Harley-Davidson Road King with Sidecar (FLHRI) 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.)

For 1999 the Road King's new Twin Cam 88 replaced the old Evolution big twin with more displacement, more torque off idle, and a stiffer bottom end — exactly the upgrade a sidecar-equipped FLHR/I needed to keep pulling that extra wheel without laboring. The touring silhouette, spoked wheels, and leather saddlebags stayed pure Road King, but the cockpit stayed analog: no screen, no navigation, no phone integration of any kind.
The HogPlay Media Screen closes that gap without cutting into the stock wiring harness or dash. The 7-inch unit clamps to the handlebars, wires directly to a switched power source and ground, and pairs wirelessly with your phone for CarPlay or Android Auto. The mount is fully reversible, so the sidecar rig's original factory look returns anytime the screen comes off.
Fit a 1999 Road King FLHR/I Sidecar with the HogPlay Media Screen and you get dual Bluetooth built in — one channel pairs your phone for wireless CarPlay or Android Auto, the other feeds an auxiliary amp, handlebar speakers, or a portable Bluetooth speaker. A small onboard speaker covers turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio on its own. Sealed, waterproof, and built rugged, it's made to ride through whatever the road throws at a sidecar rig.
