The 2012 Tri Glide Ultra Classic kept Harley's trike formula intact - full fairing, tour-pack, three-wheel stability - with the same Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio system that predates smartphones entirely, so there's no touchscreen, no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto on the factory deck. HogPlay's fix is an aftermarket CarPlay radio sized for the Tri Glide fairing, giving this bike wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for the first time.
No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way
The 2012 Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic shipped with the factory Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio — 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 on-board CarPlay and Android Auto, then a HogPlay Media Box unleashes Netflix, YouTube and streaming apps and a Piglet adds 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 too.

The 2012 Tri Glide Ultra Classic sits late in this trike's first design generation, still riding on the pre-Rushmore touring chassis with the same fairing layout and Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio system Harley used since the trike's 2009 launch.
For most 2012 Tri Glide owners, the appeal of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto comes down to navigation and music without fumbling a phone in a tank bag. Aftermarket radios from Rockford Fosgate and Boss are built to slot into this exact fairing opening and come with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto ready to go, retiring the factory Harman/Kardon unit in the process.
Pair that radio with a HogPlay Media Box and you unlock streaming - Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music and podcasts - plus Android Auto, playing from an SD card or USB drive with no phone data used. A HogPlay USB Piglet is the simpler add-on for Android Auto and screen mirroring, while a HogPlay Media Screen mounted to the bar skips the radio swap altogether for riders who want CarPlay without touching the fairing.
HogPlay Media Boxes work on Diamond Audio, Boss Audio, Rockford Fosgate, SoundStream and Aquatic AV aftermarket radios to unlock apps, streaming and more — it's not just for factory screens. Running an aftermarket head unit? See the matching aftermarket radio pages.
