I worked in dealers in 70s, it was usually up to the sales team as to what was fitted, usually not a genuine radio but you never know

The radios were genuine VW Australia not VW.
Remember the chequered gutter trim? The mesh screens, radio aerial, chrome vent covers, stone guards,seat covers etc.
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.
Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!

The one with the 4 buttons looks close to correct for a 72.
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.

It wasn't my intention to try and sell it to you, it was more to help identify. But, if you like it, and it's what you want, I will get back to you
ASAP. I want to test it first and make sure it works properly.
The HIGH tone button (far right) was missing when I bought the car. I replaced it with a plastic wallplug and painted it black, so it's not
perfect.
Do you want the speaker that was with it, it's in the top picture?
All the best, Rob.
