The 2017 Harley-Davidson Wide Glide closes out the Dyna era in style — a raked-out front end, drag-style bars, and that long, low chopper stance that's defined the model since the '90s. Under the tank sits the Twin Cam 103, the high-output big twin that became standard across the Dyna line in 2012, delivering the low-end torque this bike's cruising character is built around. What the '17 Wide Glide never got from the factory is a screen: no infotainment, no navigation, no phone mirroring. The HogPlay Media Screen fixes that with a 7-inch bar-mounted unit built for exactly this kind of bike.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2017 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 kept the Wide Glide's factory gauge simple — round speedo, idiot lights, nothing more — which was fine in 2017 but leaves a rider with zero way to run turn-by-turn navigation or stream music from a phone. The Twin Cam 103 pulls hard off the line and cruises comfortably at highway speed, so the bike has always had the legs for longer rides; it just never had the tech to back them up.
HogPlay's fix mounts to the Wide Glide's bars in the cockpit, right where a rider's eyes already fall. Installation is straightforward: mount the bracket, run power and ground to the battery, and the CarPlay display is ready to go. The unit is reversible, so the mount comes off clean if you ever sell the bike or swap components, with no permanent cuts into the stock wiring or bars.
