Hi, I recently bought a '74 2.0 that never has had a radio. I'm thinking about installing a reconditioned Blaupunkt radio, from that time frame, if I can find one. Do any forum readers know where I could look? Don't laugh, but ideally, I'd even consider radio/cassette (I'm an audio dinosaur) if such a reconditioned item still exists. Thanks
Steve

It would be a rare occurence for a 4 cylinder 914 (US delivery) to have had a factory installed radio. I personally know of none.

Radios were dealer options in the states, though Blaupunkt was probably the most requested.

I bought my '72 with no radio, even from the dealer. I wanted to save some bucks & do it myself, since it's so easy. Got a Blaupunkt Frankfort from Crutcthfield within 2 weeks of delivery of the 914 - put it in & wired it up in less than an hour. I won't go into the antenna story, but Frankfurts were quite common, though without cassette capability. 'course, in '72 we were mostly into 8-track.
