The 2003 Harley-Davidson Low Rider rolled out in the brand's 100th Anniversary year, wearing the low-slung stance, drag-style bars, and staggered shorty dual exhaust that made the FXDL a cruiser icon since the late '70s. Under the tank sits the carbureted Twin Cam 88, the workhorse V-twin Harley ran through the mid-2000s. Like every Low Rider of this era, it left the factory with no radio or infotainment of any kind. The fix: bolt on the HogPlay 7-inch Media Screen and bring this 2003 Low Rider into the CarPlay era.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2003 Harley-Davidson Low Rider 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 Low Rider earned its name honestly — lower seat height, lower bars, a leaned-back riding position that put it a notch closer to the ground than a Super Glide or Wide Glide. In 2003, that stripped-down cruiser attitude came standard, with nothing in the way of a dash-mounted screen or speaker to clutter the lines Harley designers worked so hard to keep clean.
Installing the HogPlay Media Screen keeps that same clean approach. The unit clamps to the handlebars in place of a stock gauge or accessory mount, runs two wires to a switched power source and ground, and that's the whole job. No dash cutting, no fairing to drill into, no factory harness to splice. It's fully reversible too, so a 2003 Low Rider that started life with zero electronics can gain wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto today and go back to bone stock tomorrow if the next owner wants it that way.
