Helm stereo dimensions

[Joshua Miller]

Looking to replace my stock stereo out of a 2010 AR240. Dimensions of the helm dash cutout are 7.5” x 2.38”. I was going to go with a Fusion from Crutchfield but I talked to their customer service and none of their models fit my cutout. I find this hard to believe, but does anyone know of a good replacement that fits these dimensions? Or, is there a way I can install a mounting plate over my existing hole so I can mount a smaller stereo?

I thought that 2010s had a DIN size, just like mine. That should be 7x2. For the Fusions that are not standard DIN, there is a little adapter plate you can get to make it fit to a DIN size.

Like this: Fusion MS-RA200MP Mounting plate for Fusion's MS-RA200 or MS-RA50 marine receivers at Crutchfield

I don’t know the size of the stock unit but I just replaced it in my 2010 242 Ls with the fusion head unit and adapter / face plate in the attached pic.

This is a 2016 242 limited SE but I installed a JL MM50 where the cup holder use to be.

Never seen that before. I never use my cup holder there anyways because it blocks the port tachometer.

Perfect. This was what I was looking for. Don’t know why the customer rep for crutchfield didn’t recommend this. Thanks!
