Re: [T3] SB Stereo

I'm sure Jim is right.  The UK fitting kits generally had an angle
strip that fixed under the dash edge with holes for the radio
control shafts to be fixed to, a trapezoidal front panel and a
knobbly black vinyl on foam cover that was trapped by the front
panel.

This is what Blaupunkt supplied here; they may well have done the
same for their radios in the States, but other suppliers would have
had their own versions I imagine.

There were no official VW factory radios or brackets.  The ones I am
familiar with are all produced for VWoA as dealer installed
accessories.  They do not appear on the VW microfilm or printed
parts
lists.  They are likely not to be the same in different markets.
