Cassette Mounting (EURO Only)
The cassette mounting assembly is designed to mount in a standard DIN space
in the instrument panel or console. This mounting permits rapid insertion and
removal of the radio unit from the vehicle. All connections are made through
a quick disconnect connector at the rear of the cassette mounting assembly to
the radio unit. This connector is part of the cassette assembly. The cassette
assembly is shown in Figure 36.
