hello

could some 120y b210 drivers show me how their cd players are mounted

thanks in advance
Jason

i have mine mounted in glove box with small whole drilled in back for wiresto go through it sits on the bottom fine still use glove boxs as normal

I have mine mounted in the dash....

The old AM head unit has been removed, and the hole re-cut to fit the new head deck.

sorry datman i couldnt log on the other nite (for sum reason) yeh well a12s were pretty common in off road buggies and they used to bike carbs on them due to an a12 as u know 1200 well 1100cc bike=more power then an a12 and roughly same capacity so their pretty much a perfectly suited thing only problem is it hard to make a manifold as the bike carbs dont have a flange or or anything( on most) the same on the inlet side of the carbies, most off roaders made a plate the same size as ports in head welded on 4 pipes slipped radiator hose over pipes clamped them up then the same at the carbies, just with a brace down to the block, made ram tubes and put unifilters on... another great thing is you can alter the length of the hose(within reason)to gain bottom end response or top end without buying new/making new manifolds...on my set up i did that with silicone intercooler/turbo type hoses/joiners with bolt up hose clamps...looks neater and is better than radiator hose

This is a curious thing... An excellent body with an A-series:

... and horrible m3 style mirrors. But if that's the case I wonder if it has the, well I'll call it the "stained glass" rear lights too?

Juniorjay,
sorry its taken so long mate. i hav some photos of the stereo install in my 120Y. As u see its been mounted where the old AM head deck used to be.

thanks datman

i spent some time today and got the head deck sitting good where the ciggarete packet holder and the datsun symbol used to be
i had to make up a plate and do some hefty bashing at it with the hammer to get the right shape
but the end result i think is good

ill post some pictures tomoro
now all i have to do is put something where the old AM/FM used to be

cheers
Jason

there are blanking plates available for the am head deck. not suer who sells them. but i know they are available

Gday Jason
Inthe glove box area is a good idea....The guy before me but abig radio/cb player in the dash where the radio use tobe and made a huge hole in the dash,which I had to replace.It abetter option for if you change your mind down the track. Cheers Bazz
