Volvo radio small cover panel

Post by bogbasic »

Folks, I have a Volvo VC601 radio which has a cover panel missing at the left-hand side.....

Image

....which goes over the fitting clip.

If you have a spare one, or a dud radio with the same type of clip cover present, please drop me a line.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks, bogbasic.

I've a feeling those particular factory radios were made by Philips. (and perhaps an alternative source for said bits)

Those were made by that Dutch company........you should be able to find such a cover at a scrappie.

Many thanks for your replies. Yes, I came to the same conclusion a few years ago about Philips making those radios, in fact I found out which was the equivalent Philips model a while back, although I've long forgotten all that.... could re-do my homework, but was just thinking if someone has a dud one and/or can put their hands on that panel quickly, that would be great, otherwise its one for a scrappie on ebay.
