    Thanks! That’s what I thought. They’re on there pretty tight so just wanted to make sure before I started wrenching on it.

    Officially installed and working. Radio install was a PIA but it’s in there. Managed to use existing holes under dash to mount a 8track in my 70GS.

    From new it was an AM with 8 track but we’re long gone. Managed to find a 71 AM/FM a and didn’t realize 8 track was a 68 model until shipping out to get refurbished. Blue tooth was added inside.

    Looks like you don't have the correct bracket on the 8 track

    Yeah, I bought a while back (as I was told it was for a 70) and just realized right before sending it out to get refurbished that it was a 1968 version. A 70 bracket wouldn’t fit on it, this 68 version seems to be angled. but it works. Didn’t have to drill holes in dash either.

    My GS is not numbers matching but trying to get everything back to 70 as close as I can. At least the 8 track is easily replaceable later.
