The 1999 Harley-Davidson Super Glide Convertible earned its name honestly — a quick-detach windshield and leather saddlebags let riders swap between stripped-down cruiser and light tourer in minutes. This was also the first model year of the Twin Cam 88, Harley's all-new big twin that replaced the aging Evolution engine across the Dyna line, giving the FXDS-CONV a stronger, smoother pull for two-up highway runs. What the 1999 Convertible never got was a factory radio, so sound on board means adding the bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 1999 Harley-Davidson Super Glide Convertible 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.)

Riding on the Dyna platform's rubber-mounted chassis, the Super Glide Convertible split the difference between a bare Super Glide and a full-dress tourer, letting 1999 buyers pull the windshield and bags for a solo cruiser look or bolt them back on before a road trip. The freshly introduced Twin Cam 88 under the tank brought noticeably more torque and smoother running than the old Evolution mill it replaced, matching the bike's dual-purpose intent.
The HogPlay Media Screen mounts to the handlebars in place of a factory unit this Convertible never had. Install is straightforward: a simple power-and-ground tap into the existing electrical system, with the whole unit reversible so nothing about the original 1999 bike is permanently altered.
