its a bench for a child believe it or not

if I have translated this right it reads

fills up the space between the front and rear seats

ensure the transport of a brace securely

5 door models can accomodate one bench

I'm guessing since kiddy car seats were not around then,
this went in front of the back seat for kiddies who s feet couldent reach the floor ,to sit with there feet up on it so they could sit right back into the seat comfortably and to stop them sitting f the edge of the seat

Matt...like this one...? ;)

I'm not sure I've ever seen one for a 'bonded screen' (i.e. mk3) or saloon in the flesh. That's the second or third mk1/mk2 one I've seen, and that particular example is now tucked safely away in my loft, awaiting a mk1...

i guess the radio is digital as the station changer is a button(s)

this radio worked well with those speakers

but not well at all with my new hotness
