W&N sells the security nuts new. Look in the AC section or knobs section. I don’t know where anything is on that site.

Four radios. Two are working and two are not.
This is my current favourite

Since I don't know much about these old radios, maybe someone could educate me on what radio I have? It's a blaupunkt that was refurbished by a local radio shop, but I never took the time to figure out the specifics.
It’s a Frankfurt mono radio with euro FM scale to 104, these are neat vintage radios.
Not yet installed in my Coupe, but it fits the faceplate!
Giving some thought to getting a vintage radio but with the modern components with Bluetooth etc. What do you guys recommend?
this source has some nice units.

Can I assume that stereo was an option and when did it start? I ask because of the mono speaker behind the wood grill, indicating mono was standard? IDK. Was stereo added by the dealer and not standardized? My 73 Euro has no obvious place for speakers other than the front dash. I have my mono Frankfurt and single speaker just like what came as standard on my 72 Bavaria.
The Orange Parts book shows mono and stereo Blaupunkt and Becker radios and even stereo cassette Beckers. All were dealer installed.
Thanks Chris. BTW, nice quarter sawed oak in your prior image.
I found these guys and they make stuff for Porsche but some applies to our cars. Ex

Also, sure its been done before but for bling I redid the face plate to match the rest of the wood:

We love Mission style furniture.
Didn’t see this exact model posted with chrome buttons. (I have the knobs in a storage box too)
Came from my German ‘75 3.0cs.
It wasn’t hooked up to anything just in there for decoration I guess. I thought the original stickers were interesting

It's a 1964/65 Blaupunkt Köln, but the powerpack is missing.

I decided to finally take the plunge and get a new radio. I already have an amp. I like the Becker, not sure about the difference between Europa and Grand Prix. I want to set up to work with my amp, with Bluetooth. Not sure if a microphone is an option or not. I have had issues with any in car mics, and ideally prefer the microphone to be used from my iPhone, while speakers in car. Any thoughts are appreciated. Not sure if this unit is still available.
