The 2004 Harley-Davidson FLHRCI Road King Classic Sidecar puts Harley's classic touring silhouette—whitewall tires, valanced fenders, leather saddlebags—on a third wheel, giving riders the stability to haul a passenger or cargo across long miles two-up. Power comes from the fuel-injected Twin Cam 88 V-twin, the workhorse engine Harley ran through the mid-2000s. What this rig never had, in any trim, was factory infotainment: no screen, no smartphone integration, at best an optional AM/FM head unit. That's where the HogPlay Media Screen comes in.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2004 Harley-Davidson Road King Classic with Sidecar (FLHRCI) 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 Road King Classic trim layered vintage touches—laced wheels, extra chrome, leather bags—onto the standard King's touring bones, and the sidecar package turns it into a genuine three-wheeled hauler, planted and predictable at highway speed with a passenger or a loaded trunk aboard. The Twin Cam 88 delivers the low-end torque that platform needs, running electronic fuel injection for cleaner cold starts and a steadier idle than the carbureted FLHRC it shared showroom floor space with.
Installing the HogPlay Media Screen is straightforward: the 7-inch unit clamps to the handlebar, a wire routes back to a switched power source and ground, and the whole thing is reversible—no permanent cuts to the wiring harness, no drilling into the fairing or trunk. Once it's mounted, the phone pairs wirelessly for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, turning this sidecar rig into a properly connected long-distance tourer.
