The 2001 Harley-Davidson FLHT/I Electra Glide Standard paired with a sidecar is old-school three-wheel touring at its purest — a fuel-injected Twin Cam 88 doing the work under a frame-mounted fairing, with none of the Ultra Classic's extra chrome or fairing lowers to get in the way. It's a rig built for long, steady miles with a passenger riding low beside you instead of behind. What it never had was a factory radio or any kind of infotainment, so for real navigation and music on this 2001 Electra Glide with Sidecar rig, riders add the HogPlay Media Screen.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2001 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHTI) 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 FLHT/I's fixed fairing and stripped-down trim, next to its Ultra Classic sibling, leave a clean cockpit, and the sidecar's added stability means you're not wrestling the bars at low speed just to glance at a display. The HogPlay Media Screen mounts right to those bars: a 7-inch bar-mounted unit with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto plus a built-in speaker, so turn-by-turn and music finally have a home on this rig.
Installation is straightforward — the screen taps into the bike's existing power and ground, nothing more invasive than that — and the mount is fully reversible, so nothing about the stock 2001 FLHT/I gets permanently altered, sidecar and all.
