All I know is that it's smaller than the standard size you get nowadays! Unfortunately my dash has been cut (and anyway, I've just had my dinner and can't move off the sofa to go to the garage!!!)...

This may not be much help, but I fitted a modern radio straight into my dash, BUT... it is a USA spec padded dash, and i'm not sure if it was a different size to the euro ones!
Good luck buddy the panel looks the nuts :lol:

hi grazy.

the standard hole in a dash is 180mm * 44mm

hope this is ok

Grazy,
Have just taken the knackered radio out of my van to get at the wiring and confirm what madjoiner says - 180mm x 45mm slot, and my van is an early '69 with painted dash. But I wish now that I hadnt thrown away the originaly installed Blaupunkt MW/LW radio years ago !

good luck with yer new van.

Hey Grazy, if in any doubt just mount it either in your glove box or behind the passenger seat and get a cover blank. Dont cut the dash dude! 8)
