Hello,
I am looking for a small grey knob for the radio shown below (picture pinched from macplaxton, hope that's OK

) and the cigarette lighter part that pulls out.
ttfn, bog.

I thought I had a saturday nighter, too, but couldn't find it yesterday. If anyone comes across one of those radios, I'd love to hear... I know it was the same radio in my 1.4.

Fine by me bog, I pinched it from
tubthumper...

Now that is a Philips VC 600
Note the uncanny resemblance to this Philips 650:

The knobs will just be a greyer version of those.

Many thanks sir, the ebay link is interesting - that's certainly a more stylish radio, as reflected in the price, so I think I will just have to wait and keep my eyes open for the moment in case one turns-up somewhere, but certainly knowing that a VC-650 has the same or similar knobs, will help with searches, etc ;-0

Many thanks Mac for the VC600 radio which looks absolutely awesome. I will make it up to you. Also, thanks again to the gent who provided the ciggy lighter... Will try to do the same... It looks like this thread is now solved.
