Re: Reproduction Radio Fascia Lens

Thank you all,

The original thread relating to reproduction radio lens was way back in 2011, so I am unsure whether they are still being produced. I have contacted Bill Reid and hope that he can assist. The website selling old radios do not reproduce these.

Where to purchase cross ply/conventional tyres?

Dear all,

I am in need for new tyres, in 2001 I was able to purchase Nankang cross ply tires off the shelf (produced for caravans I think). I do acknowledge it was a long time ago but recently I spoke with tyre outlets and unsurprisingly they do no stock them except for white wall cross ply tyres ...

Re: Original Radio Fitting

Thanks Clay!

Just a question:
JA steel strap is used to brace the forward facing end of the radio body to the plenum chamber just forward and above, Can I buy these straps from somewhere?

The rest of it sounds like trial and error!

Cheers

Re: Antenna to Radio Connection?

Cheers Clay!

This is very helpful information, I think I'll go with the top of the guard option. I noticed that I can run it through a wire click hole in the engine bay and next to the other wires. As you mentioned, its looks pretty easy to run it through one of the grommets on the firewall to ...

I had problems with PM

Thank you for your reply! Would you still be willing to part with the radio? Will it fit directly into the EK model and what is the asking price for it?

Can you please contact me through email and provide this information (shaneorussell@gmail.com)?
