The 2016 Harley-Davidson Wide Glide keeps the raked-out, chopper-inspired stance that revived the nameplate — a stretched fork, skinny 21-inch front wheel, and low drag bars built for attitude, not luggage. Power comes from the Twin Cam 103 V-twin, standard on the Wide Glide since 2012. What it never got from the factory is a screen: no infotainment, no navigation, no phone integration. The HogPlay Media Screen fixes that, a 7-inch bar-mounted display bringing wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to a bike built for the open road, not a dashboard.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2016 Harley-Davidson Wide Glide 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.)

Harley-Davidson brought the Wide Glide name back in 2010, reviving the raked-front-end chopper look of the original 1980s FXWG for the modern Dyna platform, and the 2016 model still wears it well — deep blacked-out engine covers, a low 26.9-inch seat height, and a 32-degree fork rake that stretches the front wheel out ahead of the bike. It's a stripped-down cruiser built for style and stance over storage, which is exactly why it never carried a factory screen or radio.
Installing the HogPlay Media Screen keeps that clean look intact. The unit mounts to the handlebars near the drag bar risers, wires straight to the bike's power and ground, and sits reversible so it can face up or down depending on rider preference and sun glare. No dash to cut into, no fairing to modify — just a bar-mounted screen added to a bike that was never built to carry one.
