Factory USB locationNone

The 2004 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is peak fat-spoke, solid-disc-wheel muscle from the Twin Cam 88B era — a counter-balanced 88 cubic inch (1450cc) big twin bolted into the Softail chassis for smooth, hidden-shock cruising and that unmistakable low, wide silhouette Arnold Schwarzenegger made famous. Chrome everywhere, staggered shorty exhaust, and zero pretense about what it is: a straight-line cruiser built to be seen and heard. What it never got from the factory is a stereo. Bolt on the HogPlay Media Screen and this 2004 Fat Boy finally gets wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on the bars.

No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen

The 2004 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy 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 2004 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2004 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy

Twenty years on, the 2004 Fat Boy's formula still holds up: massive front disc wheel, deep-valanced fenders, and a Twin Cam 88B that thumps out torque low in the rev range rather than chasing redline. It's a bike built for cruising boulevards and long straight highways, not carving canyons — which makes it a perfect candidate for a screen you actually want mounted where you can see it.

Installation is straightforward on a bike this uncluttered: the HogPlay Media Screen clamps to the handlebars in clear view, taps into a power and ground source, and that's it — no dash to cut into, no factory harness to splice. Mount it facing you or your passenger since it's fully reversible, and you've got turn-by-turn navigation and phone audio on a bike that came from the factory with neither.

Every HogPlay Media Screen runs dual Bluetooth, so your 2004 Fat Boy can pair to your phone for wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on one channel while the second channel feeds an auxiliary amp, handlebar speakers, or a portable Bluetooth speaker of your choice. A small built-in speaker handles turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio on its own even without extra speakers wired in. The housing is fully sealed and waterproof, built rugged enough to shrug off rain, road grime, and vibration mile after mile on this Fat Boy.
