2018 was year one for the all-new Fat Bob, reborn on Harley's redesigned Softail platform with a stiffer cast-aluminum frame, mono-shock rear end, and the Milwaukee-Eight 107 V-Twin under those signature dual headlights and fat 150mm front tire. It's the most aggressive, street-fighter-styled cruiser in the lineup — and like every 2018 Fat Bob off the factory floor, it left the dealership with zero infotainment. No screen, no CarPlay, no Bluetooth. Bolt on the HogPlay Media Screen and finally get wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto up on the bars.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2018 Harley-Davidson Fat Bob 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.)

The 2018 Fat Bob traded the old twin-shock Dyna chassis for Harley's new unified Softail platform, giving this bike sharper handling, more ground clearance, and a lower, more planted stance than any Fat Bob before it — all powered by the torquey new Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine. It's a bike built for attitude and aggressive riding, not touring electronics, which is exactly why so many owners add a screen after the fact.
The HogPlay Media Screen mounts right to the handlebars, keeping the Fat Bob's stripped-down look intact. Installation is straightforward: run power and ground to the battery, mount the bracket, and you're done. No dash cutting, no fairing modifications. The unit is fully reversible, so if you ever sell the bike or swap it to another, removal leaves nothing behind.
Turn your 2018 Fat Bob into a connected ride with the HogPlay Media Screen. Dual Bluetooth means you can pair your phone for wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on one channel while streaming audio out to an auxiliary amp, handlebar speakers, or a portable Bluetooth speaker on the other — a small built-in speaker keeps turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio covered even without extra speakers wired in. Sealed, waterproof, and built rugged for whatever the road throws at a Fat Bob rider, it's made to handle sun, rain, and vibration without complaint.
