1978-79 Dodge Magnum XE Newport 1.5 DIN Radio-RetroSound
1978-1979 Dodge Magnum XE Newport 1.5 DIN Radio
The RetroSound® Newport is the most authentic radio replacement for your 1978-79 Dodge Magnum XE with its factory 1.5 DIN radio opening. 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 installs quickly and hassle-free thanks to the included mounting kit and wiring harness. The Newport is available with your choice of 3 different feature sets.
