The 2005 Electra Glide Classic is the last of the base-radio Electra Glides before Harley moved to the Harman/Kardon system, and its factory AM/FM unit still has no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to speak of. HogPlay's path to both is the same aftermarket radio swap that works across these years - a touring head unit built for this fairing, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto included.
No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way
The 2005 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic Shrine shipped with the factory factory touring radio (1999–2005) — a solid unit in its day, but no Apple CarPlay, Android Auto or touchscreen. Fit an aftermarket CarPlay radio (SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio or Aquatic AV) for wireless Apple CarPlay — SoundStream, Boss and Diamond Audio include Android Auto natively, while Rockford Fosgate and Aquatic AV gain it once you add a HogPlay Media Box or Piglet, which also unleash Netflix, YouTube, streaming apps, Mirror Link and AirPlay. No headset bypass needed — that's a factory-radio thing, not aftermarket. Rather not swap the radio? A bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen adds wireless CarPlay and Android Auto too.

The 2005 Electra Glide Classic wraps up an era for this Harley - full batwing fairing, hard saddlebags, and a factory radio setup that would soon be replaced by the Harman/Kardon system in later years. For now, it's still a basic AM/FM unit doing a basic job.
That factory radio has no Bluetooth, no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto, and no combination of settings changes that. Riders wanting spoken directions, hands-free calling or their own music library have to bring in new hardware, not a workaround.
The fix is an aftermarket touring radio built for this fairing - SoundStream, Boss and Aquatic AV all build units here with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on board. Add a HogPlay Media Box to stream Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music and podcasts from an SD card or USB drive, or a HogPlay USB Piglet for Android Auto plus Mirror Link and AirPlay mirroring. Riders who'd rather not swap the factory radio at all can run a bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen instead.
