Hi,
Blaupunkt and Panasonic seem to have been popular dealer fit stereos and I've also seen Philips. I think Panasonic were most popular.
If you're looking for a period stereo, there isn't a 'correct' one. I got a factory fit Blaupunkt from an '83 Merc for mine.
Cheers,
Mark

Radios were not fitted as an option, they were an accessory.

I have listed:

Panasonic CQ 582
Panasonic 6450
Panasonic 8610
Philips 824
Philips 880
Philips 914
Hitachi Digital 8
Blaupunkt Hamburg
Blaupunkt Templehof
Blaupunkt Hildesheim
Motorola

My favourite is the Blaupunkt Hamburg.

Cheers
Rajan

I bought a Blaukpunt Oxford radio/cassette set last year at Gaydon. It seems in pretty good fettle but don't know if it works yet cos I haven't fitted it. Cost me a ?5.

Need some speaker plugs, you know those with a spade and pin configuration. Until I find some I can't do it.  :(

May pay someone to do it though as these car stereo guys will have them surely. Plus not sure if all the four speakers are working in the car. I know the OS rear is split but have some spares.  :D

Have tried Halfords and a couple of others. But hey unless I want fury dice and endless polishes I think I may be in the wrong
place.   :banghead:
