The 2016 Harley-Davidson Softail Slim strips custom style down to the essentials — a wide whitewall front tire, solo seat, and blacked-out finishes that channel 1940s bobber lines, all riding on the Twin Cam 103 that powers this generation of Softail with a deep, torquey pull. What it doesn't have is a factory radio or infotainment display; the Slim's minimalist dash never made room for one. The HogPlay Media Screen fixes that with a 7-inch bar-mounted unit bringing wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to your 2016 Slim without disturbing its stripped-down look.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2016 Harley-Davidson Slim 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.)

Introduced as one of Harley's leaner Softail customs, the Slim pairs a hardtail-style frame with deep-fender styling and a wide front tire for a low, purposeful stance — genuinely different from the chrome-heavy cruisers around it in the 2016 lineup, and none of that trim gave it a screen or navigation of any kind. The HogPlay Media Screen mounts to the handlebars in clear view, keeping the factory dash and speedometer untouched.
Installation is straightforward: the unit taps into a switched power source and ground, and because it's fully reversible, nothing about the Slim's stock wiring or dash is permanently modified. Once wired in, the screen pairs with your phone for CarPlay or Android Auto, turning this bare-bones bobber into a bike with real navigation and hands-free calling on tap.
