I know
I thought it was crazy having 2?? so second is more for décor LOL
But the kit came with way too much of everything, brackets, washers spacers etc,... they said it was because each installation was unique. They were right about that! :o I had to do my homework on this one :D

Its called a Zuma radio and can be found from a company called Classic Car Stereo (.co.uk)
You have a choice of 9 different face plates to suit the period/style. And a choice of buttons.
You can mix and match to get the right look you want.
Cheers
M :D

Thanks Charlie
I like to keep as original as possible and will avoid any unwanted attention when parked in public places.
The door however happily remains open and unobtrusive when the radio is in operation.
Yes BM not only gloves have lost a home but my glasses and other stuff too :-(
Worth while today whilst listening to
"Didn't we have a lovely time the day we went to Bangor" :D
(not an easy song to pole dance to though!) :o

It was a joke made by Victoria Wood.
So whenever I hear the song (a favourite of mine)
I cant help thinking of her joke. :D
