Thread: Dash radio Plate

  1. #1

    Dash radio Plate

    I'm replacing an after market radio for a period correct one on my '71T and after pulling everything out the metal plate on the dash that holds the radio has been cut. I knew this was the case so I've bought some sheet aluminium to make my own but does anybody have the measurements for the stock style Blaupunkt face plate? I feel like I've seen it on the forums before but I can't find it now. I know woody's on ebay sells them but I thought I'd make my own if I can just find the measurements to do it. Thanks,

    Stretch

    Thanks for the link but I was planning to make my own and I'm looking for measurements for the holes. I already have the thin sheet metal but I'm not sure what the specs are for the factory cut outs. If anybody has an uncut original they can measure or knows where to find the measurements on the web I'd appreciate it. Thanks,

    I've got my original plate for outer dimensions so I'm really looking for adjustment knob hole size and faceplate hole size as well as their placement from the edges.

    Stretch- I can help you but you'll need to wait a couple of days (I'm away from the car until probably Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning) Coincidently I am installing a Blaupunkt Frankfurt after replacing the dash leather. Will that work?

    I can give you exact measurements- millimeters or inches, from tuning shafts to cutout openings, cutout dimensions etc.

    I suggest emailing me.

    I have the Blaupunkt radio plate from that ebay auction. I could scan it and email you a pdf for a template if you like. Just PM me.
