RetroSound 270-680 Installation Package
This installation package lets you finish off your RetroSound 1.5-DIN (3” tall) receiver with the brackets and wiring harnesses that are compatible with your classic Ford or Mercury vehicle. The brackets work with the new receiver's chassis, so you can secure the radio in your dash cavity. The included wiring harness plugs directly into the RetroSound radio's wiring connector, so you can integrate your vehicle's factory wiring. Warranty: 90 days.
Note: This installation package is designed to work with 3" tall RetroSound stereos, like the New York M2, New York M4, and the Newport, and is not compatible with other car stereos.

Note: The included wiring harness will need to be soldered or crimped to the RetroSound Newport's harness. The harness will then plug into your vehicle's factory radio plug. The harness does not contain a ground wire, so the ground wire (black) of the RetroSound Newport's harness must be grounded to metal behind the radio.
