2001 Harley-Davidson Flhtcu/I Sidecar — HogPlay 7-inch CarPlay & Android Auto screen fitment
Factory codeFLHTCUI
EngineTwin Cam 88
Factory head unitNo factory options — HogPlay Screen recommended
Factory USB locationNone

The 2001 Harley-Davidson FLHTCU/I Electra Glide Ultra Classic Sidecar is the factory's hack-ready full dresser, built on a reinforced frame and a stouter front end to handle the extra load and geometry of towing a sidecar, all powered by the fuel-injected Twin Cam 88 big twin that had just taken over touring duty from the old Evolution. It hauls two-up (or three-wheel) for the long haul, but the dash never got a factory screen or smartphone hookup. Add the HogPlay Media Screen and bring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to this 2001 Ultra Classic Sidecar.

No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen

The 2001 Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHTCUI) 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.)

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2001 Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHTCUI) and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2001 Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHTCUI)

Harley built the Ultra Classic Electra Glide with Sidecar package around the standard Electra Glide Ultra Classic's full fairing, lockable saddlebags, and Tour-Pak, then reinforced the frame, upgraded the front end, and revised the steering geometry so the bike could safely pull a sidecar rig instead of just carrying a passenger behind. The Twin Cam 88 delivers smooth, torquey power that suits the extra weight, but there's nowhere factory to plug in a phone or run navigation.

The HogPlay Media Screen fixes that without touching the stock wiring harness. It mounts to the handlebars right in the rider's line of sight, taps into a switched power source and ground, and streams wireless CarPlay or Android Auto straight from your phone. The mounting bracket is reversible, so it fits stock bars or swapped ones, and it comes off clean if you ever want the cockpit back to stock.
