The 2018 Street Glide Anniversary dressed Harley's batwing-faired tourer in special-edition trim for the brand's 115th year, riding on the same Milwaukee-Eight Street Glide platform riders already trust for long days in the saddle. Its factory Boom! Box 4.3 was a solid AM/FM/Bluetooth-audio unit for its era, but it's a fixed, non-touch head unit with no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto built in. HogPlay gives this anniversary Glide a path to wireless CarPlay and Android Auto without hunting down a discontinued factory part.
No Factory CarPlay — GTS Swap or Aftermarket
The 2018 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Anniversary 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 or Piglet adds Android Auto — a Media Box also unlocks Netflix, YouTube and streaming, and a Piglet adds Mirror Link and AirPlay. No headset bypass required.

The 2018 Street Glide Anniversary pairs commemorative badging and paint with the same touring-focused chassis and stereo-forward cockpit that made the Street Glide a favorite for interstate miles. The factory Boom! Box 4.3 that came with it handled Bluetooth audio and calls well enough at the time, but turn-by-turn navigation, voice-to-text and app-based media all still have to route through a phone propped in a mount — there's no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on board.
Riders closing that gap on this bike generally take one of two roads. The first is dropping in a dedicated aftermarket CarPlay head unit from a brand like SoundStream or Rockford Fosgate; most arrive with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto already onboard, so there's no separate bypass to add on that path. The second is swapping the factory 4.3 for a 2019-2023 Boom! Box GTS unit and adding a HogPlay CarPlay bypass adaptor, which unlocks the GTS's factory CarPlay and USB port (Android Auto still needs to come from elsewhere on that route).
Once a new radio is in, a HogPlay Media Box layers in Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music and podcast streaming, playing off an SD card or USB drive with no phone data used. Prefer a simpler plug-in over a screen swap? A HogPlay USB Piglet adds Android Auto plus AirPlay and Mirror Link screen mirroring in a small inline adaptor. A HogPlay Media Screen is also an option for a bar-mounted second display, though on a bike that already carries a head unit like the 4.3, most riders find upgrading the radio itself the more direct route.
