The 2008 Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Sidecar rig is a factory-bred hauler — a full-fairing Touring chassis reinforced and geared for three-wheel duty, riding on the 96 cubic-inch Twin Cam 96 that debuted across the Touring line in 2007. It's built for long-haul stability with a passenger or gear in the tub, not stereo bells and whistles, and this FLHT left the factory with no radio or infotainment of any kind. Bolt on the HogPlay Media Screen and this 2008 Electra Glide with Sidecar finally gets wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for the road.

No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen

The 2008 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHT) 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 2008 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHT) and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2008 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide with Sidecar (FLHT)

Running a sidecar changes how a Touring bike behaves — more contact patches, more mass, more low-speed muscle needed from the rider, which is exactly what the Twin Cam 96 was built to deliver in this frame. The batwing fairing gives plenty of real estate up front, but on a bike this age that space was left blank at the factory, so there's nothing routing turn-by-turn directions or streaming music to the rider hauling a rig down the interstate.

The HogPlay Media Screen mounts to the handlebar area in view of the rider, taps into a 12V power source and ground, and runs entirely wireless from there — no head unit to fabricate, no dash to cut. It's a reversible install, so the sidecar tub, the fairing, and everything else about this 2008 FLHT stays exactly as Harley built it if the screen ever comes off.

Every HogPlay Media Screen runs dual Bluetooth, so this 2008 FLHT Sidecar can pair a 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 mounted on the rig. A built-in speaker handles turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio right out of the box, and the housing is fully sealed and waterproof, built rugged enough to shrug off whatever a sidecar tour throws at it.
