Hi All,

Please can someone advise how i go about installing this Balupunkt Hamburg radio in my -6 car? It didnt have a radio when i bought it so I don't have a reference.

I've been given a couple of brackets with the 'new' radio but i can't see how it's supported on the bulkhead or from above.

I've included a few pics of what i've got, plus one from ebay which shows the U shaped bracket being screwed onto the back - is this right, and what else does it attach onto?

thanks

Chris.

No one has mentioned this so I will. If drilling, just remember the gas tank sits about 1/2" on the other side of that bulkhead.

When I made my clip I used a big punch at an angle against wood and made the tabs that fit in the holes in the firewall bracket just like the one made for the job. I used some needle nose pliers to shape the tabs.

Thanks, yes I’d agree with that approach for thin gauge metal.
