914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ FS:Radio hole metal cover

Posted by: dgw Sep 25 2013, 08:40 PM

I bought this from here in 2008 and used it until I put a radio in my car. It was described to me as "the original metal cover for the factory dealer installed Blaupunkt AM/FM radio. This one is covered in the factory black basketweave vinyl."

All that is correct except the basketweave pattern runs the wrong direction.

The pictures are of the same piece, I took the pictures on two different backgrounds.

$18 shipped USPS to CONUS. I prefer a check but will accept paypal if that is your preferred payment method.

Interested; please measure the size of the big hole and distance between the knob holes. I have a vintage radio, but not sure this will fit without the measurements.

I measure 3 5/8 by 1 1/2 for the big hole and 4 5/8 between the knob holes.

Last bump before I throw this away.

Before you throw it away....
Can you clarify measurement between knobs.
Your outside measurement...was it from center of knobs, or from inside edge of round hole.
It looks like more than one inch extra width to centers of knobs, I"d guess center is about 5 and half.
IF it is that, please let Jim know....and me, as I would give you something.
Thanks
Paul

4 5/8 from inside edge of holes, 5 1/2 from outside edge of holes.
