After years of use, it's time to reinstall the original Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio into my 914-6. The Sony cassette radio just doesn't do the trick anymore!
Does anyone have any information on what the original speaker connector is or looks like? There is a DIN plug on the back of the radio, as well as two holes for a speaker connector, but it's a size that I haven't seen before, and the original connector is long gone. Someone once mentioned that there is an iPod cable that Canberra also connected into the back of this unit, any info would be appreciated. |

Thanks for the help! I don't see a spot for the flat part of the connector, but I will recheck. The DIN connector should allow me to attach an iPod to the radio, which should bring it into the current century while still keeping the vintage look.
Somehow, all the current crop of aftermarket radios don't have a vintage look, and I don't like the boy racer look with all the whiz bang graphics. |
