salans7 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 This is actually one of the easiest parts to find. I even owned one for a short time. 1980 Factory CB Radio Microphone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kramttocs Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 That’s spendy all right! This got me curious about the one I pulled a while back. Mine is well used but is also different. The wiring harness and mounting bracket are Ford but not sure if the actual unit or mic are. Thoughts? It also had a different antenna that I don't see anything like it in the 1980 manual so figure that's aftermarket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having seen an actual antenna, could be anything as lots were made in the 70’s and 80’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question is whether the Mic is correct for a bullnose, dentside, or passenger car. Hard to tell on the wiring harness since it isn't really visible.

It's definitely similar but the nos one has an extra button, lights in the mic, and the mic/display are swapped. Was looking at the manual - anyone have one of the mic holders that mounts to a bucket seat? Would like to see a photo of one out of curiosity.

Harness looks like: D8TB-18A919CB Both ends have Burndy on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Good to know on the antenna. Harness looks like: D8TB-18A919CB Both ends have Burndy on them. The Bullnose wiring is PN E0TZ 18A919-A. Don't know what the ID # would be, but it will start with E0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know if these can be modified to have a PA mode? Figure if one was to put one in, might as well have some fun with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
