The 2008 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy Shrine wears the Fat Boy's signature solid disc wheels and fat front end, dressed in the parade-ready Shriners fraternal trim that set the Shrine edition apart on showroom floors. Power comes from the Twin Cam 96 big twin, the steady, torque-heavy engine Harley ran through its Softail lineup in the mid-2000s. It left the factory with no radio or infotainment — so if you want wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on your Fat Boy Shrine, the HogPlay Media Screen bolts to the bars and gets you there.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2008 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy Shrine 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 Fat Boy Shrine takes Harley's most recognizable Softail — the disc-wheeled, fat-tired cruiser that's been a cultural icon since 1990 — and finishes it in the colors and crest of the Shriners, the fraternal organization known for its parade units and charity work. Under that sheet metal, the 2008 model runs the same Twin Cam 96 found across the era's big-twin Softails: a torque-rich air-cooled V-twin tuned for steady cruising, not high-rev sport riding.
Adding the HogPlay Media Screen to a bike like this is straightforward. The 7-inch screen mounts to the handlebars, taps into the bike's existing power and ground for a clean wiring job, and pairs wirelessly with your phone. The mount is reversible, so it fits pulled-back or forward-set bars without leaving marks on the Shrine's factory finish.
