Know before you buy
This kit is designed specifically to replace Fusion 650, 750, and 755 Series head units. It ensures the Apollo RA770 fits perfectly into the existing cutout space left by those older models.
No. The primary purpose of this kit is to allow you to install an Apollo RA770 into your existing cutout without needing to enlarge or alter the dashboard opening.
The custom-shaped silicone cover provides a clean, professional finish for your new RA770 while protecting the unit from dust and debris when it is not in use.
The kit provides the necessary components to bridge the gap between your old cutout and the new unit. While standard tools like a screwdriver are typically required for mounting, no specialized fabrication tools are needed.
This kit is specifically engineered for retrofitting existing cutouts. If you are installing the stereo in a new location, you would typically use the mounting hardware provided with the RA770 unit itself rather than this retrofit kit.
