Harley-Davidson Factory Touring Radio (1999–2005)

Harley-Davidson Factory Touring Radio

1999–2005Harley-Davidson

From 1999 to 2005, Harley-Davidson touring bikes — Street Glide, Road Glide, Electra Glide and Ultra — shipped with a simple factory AM/FM head unit. It was a dependable, weather-ready radio for its day, but it has no touchscreen, no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto, and there is nothing on the stock unit for a bypass to unlock.

To add wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, fit an aftermarket CarPlay radio built for your fairing — SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio or Aquatic AV. Then a HogPlay Media Box unleashes Netflix, YouTube and streaming apps, and a HogPlay Piglet adds Mirror Link and AirPlay. No headset bypass is needed on the aftermarket path — that only applies to factory radios. Prefer not to swap the radio? A bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen adds wireless CarPlay too.

Frequently asked questions

Does the 1999–2005 Harley touring factory radio have CarPlay or Android Auto?

No. This AM/FM cassette / CD head unit has no touchscreen, no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto — and nothing on the stock unit for a bypass to unlock. These bikes were built before CarPlay and Android Auto existed, but HogPlay brings yours right up to modern wireless tech — navigation, Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, podcasts and more — and it plays from an SD card or a USB drive, so you are not burning phone data.

What are my Apple CarPlay and Android Auto options for this radio?

Fit an aftermarket CarPlay radio built for your fairing — SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio or Aquatic AV — most build in wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Prefer to keep the fairing stock? A bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen adds wireless CarPlay without replacing the radio.

Do I need a HogPlay bypass for the 1999–2005 radio?

No. A bypass unlocks EXISTING factory CarPlay — and this radio has none. On the aftermarket-radio path there is nothing to bypass.

How do I add Android Auto, Netflix and YouTube?

On your new aftermarket radio (or a HogPlay Screen), a Media Box adds Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, podcasts and more — and it plays from an SD card or a USB drive, so you are not burning phone data, and a Piglet adds Android Auto and screen mirroring.

Will a Piglet or Media Box work on my stock radio?

No — they work through a CarPlay radio’s USB, and this factory unit has none. Add an aftermarket CarPlay radio or a HogPlay Screen first.

Ride safe: on-screen video is for parked viewing only — never watch video while the motorcycle is in motion. Music, audio and navigation are made for the road.
