The 2000 Ultra Sidecar carried that same three-wheel stability into a new model year, popular with riders who wanted the security of a tug under them on long tours. The factory radio handled AM/FM duty fine for its day, but it has no path to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto built in. HogPlay maps the aftermarket CarPlay radio swap - plus Media Box streaming - that brings modern phone integration to this fairing.

No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way

The 2000 Harley-Davidson Ultra Sidecar 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 2000 Harley-Davidson Ultra Sidecar and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2000 Harley-Davidson Ultra Sidecar

The 2000 Ultra Sidecar paired Harley's full touring fairing with a driver-side sidecar tug, built for riders who wanted a stable, low-speed-friendly platform for two-up touring or hauling gear and a passenger. It's a workhorse setup - simple controls, weather protection, and a factory dash designed to last, not to run apps.

That factory radio was solid AM/FM gear for 2000, but Apple CarPlay and Android Auto weren't on any motorcycle's radar yet. Riders wanting wireless phone mirroring on this fairing today typically swap in an aftermarket CarPlay radio sized for the factory opening - Boss and Diamond Audio both build touring-fairing units that include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard.

From there, a HogPlay Media Box adds Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcast streaming from an SD card or USB drive, no phone data burned. Want Android Auto with screen mirroring instead? A HogPlay USB Piglet covers Mirror Link and AirPlay. Riders who'd rather leave the factory radio alone can mount a HogPlay Media Screen to the bars instead.
