This fascia addresses the unique geometry of the fourth-generation RAV4 dashboard, where the factory opening features non-standard trapezoid dimensions that standard double-DIN fascias cannot properly accommodate. Engineered to OEM specifications, the SF9-TY03 provides seamless integration between compatible 9\" floating-screen head units and the factory dashboard, maintaining the RAV4's refined interior aesthetic while enabling modern multimedia upgrades including wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and advanced navigation. Compatible with select Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, and Aerpro 9\" head units featuring trapezoid mounting patterns, this fascia is essential for clean, professional installations in Australia's best-selling compact SUV platform of the mid-2010s era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey
