Interesting that thing is tall !! Probably did that to compensate for the lack of signal strength in the older radio designs, who knows or their trying to contact the aliens... Anyrate, definately for sure mine is not original, it doesn't have the dash switch like the one shown above and it doesn't look like the photos Vikki showed in the trunk of her Bird. Also it sits back a bit from the template indicated location. All in all though it looks cool !!
