Anyone have a factory radio for 71 2800 CS. Also wanted factory owners manual.

Bought my OEM radio from these guys.

It might be worthwhile (and interesting) to obtain a period sales brochure from E-Bay or McLellans (http://www.mclellansautomotive.com) to see what the correct radio looked like for your year.

You might consider finding something on ebay. I believe the radio was a dealers choice and install at the time. I found a none working Blaupunkt and had it rebuilt with new gutts to accept an IPOD connection. Sounds good and looks factory.

Look for one like this:

It doesn't need the DIN faceplate, the nose is the same underneath and you can use a standard faceplate. It is a little harder to find the non-DIN Becker Europas, here is an AM Europa as well.

Might I inquire whom you used for the Blaupunkt work? Experts on these are becoming very rare.

Not a restoration, they replace the internals with modern electronics. Others here have used him, I sent mine in two weeks ago. You get 4 x 45W per channel with MP3 output.

A MP3-output is no problem, for 25-30€ you can buy an adaptor, that will be connected with the DIN-socket on rear of the most Blaupunkt radios !

Turn on the switch on the little black box, and you listen to your I-pod or MP3, turn off and you listen to the radio-station.

Here´s the adaptor:

And here´s the socket :

Here´s one on ebay, for example :

Or here, in an Online-shop :

There are 2 different sockets, one with 6 pins on mono radios, and with 7 pins on stereo...........you can get adaptors for both types !

Blaupunkt Frankfurt in good, working condition I have for 100€, others for less..........with the original knobs !

As Chris pointed out - the turnswitch guys did mine as well. Since they replace the guts, the radio only has to look nice but doesn't need to be working. The sound is much cleaner and they upgrade the wattage for a 4 speak system.

So Chris are you removing the teenage glove box sound machine?

Thanks a lot my friend! The Blaupunkt goes in the `69 2002.
