| Factory USB | USB-A (media / charge only) |
The 2018 Electra Glide Standard continued the Milwaukee-Eight-powered, no-frills approach to touring - full fairing and saddlebags, minus the extra chrome and features of the Ultra Limited. Its factory Boom! Box 4.3 still lacked Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, non-touch and locked to basic audio sources. HogPlay closes that gap wirelessly, adding both to this Harley without replacing the whole cockpit.
No Factory CarPlay — GTS Swap or Aftermarket
The 2018 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Standard ran the factory Boom! Box 4.3 — no factory CarPlay or Android Auto. Two ways to add it: swap to a 2019–2023 Boom! Box GTS and add a HogPlay GTS Bypass for wireless CarPlay, or fit an aftermarket CarPlay radio (SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio, Aquatic AV). Either way a HogPlay Media Box adds Netflix, YouTube and streaming and a Piglet adds Mirror Link and AirPlay. No headset bypass required.

The 2018 Electra Glide Standard continues the Milwaukee-Eight-powered, budget-conscious approach to touring - full fairing, hard bags, and long-mile comfort without the Ultra Limited's extra price and features. The factory Boom! Box 4.3 is unchanged from prior years: a fine basic radio, but non-touch, with no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto on board.
The most direct fix is an aftermarket CarPlay radio - Boss and Diamond Audio both offer units built for this kind of install, most with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto included together, and no headset bypass needed since it's a clean aftermarket swap rather than a factory workaround. Riders wanting to stay closer to a factory look can instead move to a 2019-2023 GTS radio and add a HogPlay CarPlay bypass adaptor to unlock its built-in CarPlay and USB port.
From there, a HogPlay Media Box brings Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcasts from an SD card or USB drive, no cellular data required. A USB Piglet is the Android Auto plus Mirror Link/AirPlay option, and a bar-mounted Media Screen suits riders who want an extra display without swapping the whole radio.
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.
