Recieved my rebuilt frankfurt in the mail. negative seems to be bodied like everything else on the vw, positive running to ignition, and there the only wires.
the 6/12v converter on the rear is correctly set to 12, and on the otherwide from he power wire is 3 speaker holes with an image showing 1 speaker o 2 holes and then 2 speakers to 1 diff hole and one the same.
can someone explain this to me.

I have a similar radio, they are saying you can connect either one, or two speakers, -negative wire from each speaker goes to one plug, & postive wire from each speaker must go to its own plug,
one thing that is stressed with the Blaupunkt radio is that you must NOT turn on radio under any circumstances without a speaker fitted
Please, I need drivers side window regulator (winder mechanism) for my '54
what connections do i use? a bullet 'spade' plug or a banana plug?

original special plugs---- dunno where you would get,
the Porsche guys jam the wire in with a matchstick-don't tell anybody!

yep, serious, poke the wire in & then a match or something to hold it in, thats how a few people have done it, I have no idea where you would get the original plugs to so;der on to the end of the wires - sorry

just thought i'd add here, in just then cracking open the case i noted that the connections are merely a plug type connection and nothing greatly special about them, bullet type 'spade' connectors or small series banana plugs can all fit snugly into these and provide a decent connection.

hey i know it seems a dumb question, but would the output be left and right, or just mono x2

mono
I should add that the stereo radio did not come out until 1969
Blaupunkt was the first with this feature

Just a thought. I wonder if you could get a fitting from Tandy or Dick smith?
On a similar subject, what sort of speaker can you use with these radios? and can you buy one new.
