914World.com _ 914World Garage _ I cant beleive I forgot how this works - need radio install help

Posted by: Scott S Aug 29 2013, 09:55 AM

Hi All -
I have a modern (and horribly ugly) radio in my car. The opeing is a single din. I just stumbled on a great old alpine shaft radio that will look far more correct for the cars age. Being that a rarely turn it on, it is perfect.

I have no interest in touching the dash. I think I remember that there should be clips that bolt on the shafts of the radio that clip the thing to the outer edge of the opening. Is this correct? If so, anyone have any?

I just found this pic. I think this is what I am looking for.....

Thanks for any help/direction!!

I think that may work. I have been searching for 30 minutes to try and find one of those - ot the two part type. Even called the local stereo shop and all they will do is make something "custom" - yuck.

Thanks!!
