radio in mk1 transit 1977 v4 {speaker}

Postby caldwelld » Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:13 pm

Hi , i have bought a vintage looking radio that has all the modern technology ie dab etc.I am going to put it in the transit. Where was the speaker fitted.? There is a vent/grille on top of the dash which i assume was where the speaker would be fitted. Has anyone fitted the speaker in there? Does anyone have a working speaker that will fit in there?

Yes that’s where the speaker would go back in the days or mono radio and if I remember correctly the radio would go in the hole from the back of the dash I think the shape of the speaker was oval

Hi

some homemade fittings and it plays. just not much space
