Need diagram on Installing a Radio

Apr 06, 2004 0 Replies

I purchased a Sapphire XVII Am radio on E-bay for my '73 Bug. My dash has never had one it. The hole is uncut. The radio came equipped with mounting ears on each side (spring loaded clips). There is a support bolt in the rear. It has the face plate with knobs. Do the "ears" lock into the metal part of the dash after cutting the hole? I assume the rear bolt must somehow be used to support the rear; but, Where? How? Make a bracket? What is the usual location for the power cord to attach. There is a fused power line with a spade connector on the end of the wire. Is there a how-to web site for installing the radio?
