The RetroSound® Newport is the most authentic radio replacement for your classic 1979-82 Plymouth TC3 vehicle that came with a factory 1.5 DIN radio. Installing a standard DIN-sized radio in these vehicles looks awkward and out of place, leaving unsightly gaps in the dash. The Newport fills your full 1.5 DIN opening perfectly and looks period-correct giving you the best of both worlds: modern audio technology and a factory-like aesthetic. The Newport mounts seamlessly into your classic thanks to the included mounting kit and wiring harness. The Newport is now available with your choice of 3 different feature sets.
