The 2018 Road Glide Police closes out this generation still running the Boom! Box 4.3, a rugged non-touch radio with no factory Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. It's a bike built for long duty shifts, but the stock stereo can't run a phone's maps or messaging. HogPlay gives the 2018 Road Glide Police wireless CarPlay and Android Auto through an aftermarket radio or a later GTS swap.
No Factory CarPlay — GTS Swap or Aftermarket
The 2018 Harley-Davidson Road Glide Police 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.

As the last of this Boom! Box 4.3-equipped run, the 2018 Road Glide Police pairs the shark-nose fairing with a radio built for reliability, not smartphone integration. There's no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto on the factory head unit, so navigation and voice texting stay on a separately mounted phone.
HogPlay offers two ways to change that. Install an aftermarket CarPlay radio from SoundStream or Diamond Audio and most arrive with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto already built in - no headset bypass needed on this path. Or swap the Boom! Box 4.3 for a 2019-2023 GTS unit and add a HogPlay CarPlay bypass adaptor to unlock the GTS's factory CarPlay and USB port.
Pair either setup with a HogPlay Media Box for Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music and podcast streaming from an SD card or USB drive - motorcycle media with zero phone data used. For screen mirroring instead, a HogPlay USB Piglet adds Android Auto and Mirror Link/AirPlay, and a bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen finishes the install on bikes lacking a stock display.
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.
