The 2020 Iron 883 carries on with the same air-cooled Evolution 883 engine and no-frills Sportster attitude - bare bars, compact frame, nothing extra bolted on. Harley never ran a wire for a screen or radio on this bike. HogPlay's bar-mounted Media Screen changes that, giving the 2020 Iron 883 wireless Android Auto and CarPlay in a single self-contained unit.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2020 Harley-Davidson Iron 883 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 2020 Iron 883 lean: an Evolution 883 V-twin, a low seat height, and handlebars with nothing on them but grips and switches. There was never a wiring harness for a display, because the bike wasn't built with one in mind.
That leaves riders without navigation, hands-free calling, or streaming music unless they add a screen themselves - which is exactly the situation most Iron 883 owners find themselves in when they want more out of a ride than gauges and a speedometer.
The HogPlay Media Screen was built for bikes like this. It clamps to the bars, runs on power and ground alone, and handles wireless CarPlay and Android Auto without any factory radio to hook into. Because it also supports Bluetooth audio in and out, it can push sound through its own built-in speakers, or send audio out to a portable Bluetooth speaker or into an amplifier and speaker setup already mounted on the bike.
