The 2005 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide (FLHT/I) rigged with a sidecar is old-school three-wheel touring done right — a full-dress bagger with a chair bolted to the side, built for hauling a passenger (or a dog) down the highway all day. Power comes from the torquey 88-cubic-inch Twin Cam 88 big twin that carried Harley's Touring line through the mid-2000s. What it never got from the factory was any kind of screen or navigation. Bolt on the HogPlay Media Screen and this 2005 Electra Glide with Sidecar finally gets wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto right on the bars.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2005 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHTI) 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.)

A sidecar changes the whole riding equation — you're steering, not leaning, and the extra wheel means extra stability but also extra distraction to manage on long hauls. That's exactly where a clear, glanceable screen earns its keep: turn-by-turn directions without fumbling a phone while you're piloting three wheels instead of two. The Twin Cam 88 underneath has the low-end grunt to shrug off the added weight of the hack, making this FLHT/I a genuine long-distance rig.
Installing the HogPlay Media Screen on the 2005 Electra Glide with Sidecar is straightforward: the 7-inch unit clamps to the handlebar, wires to a switched power source and ground, and that's it. No dash cutting, no fairing surgery. It's reversible too, so if the bike ever changes hands or goes back to stock, it comes off just as cleanly as it went on.
Every HogPlay Media Screen we build for the 2005 FLHT/I Sidecar runs dual Bluetooth, so you can pair your phone for wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on one channel while feeding a second signal to an auxiliary amp, handlebar speakers, or a portable Bluetooth speaker riding along in the sidecar. A small built-in speaker handles turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio on its own, no extra wiring needed. And because a sidecar rig sees more open-road weather than most, the unit is fully sealed, waterproof, and built rugged enough to shrug off rain, road grime, and vibration mile after mile.
