Gary Lewis Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 What would Numberdummy say? "Another clueless ebay seller!" That is not part # E0TZ-10045-A. It is a radio bezel, and those are base part number 10044. But they have 10045 as an ID # on them. This one appears to say E6TB 10045A98 Custom, but it is clearly the early style with a shaft-mounted radio. So maybe that is really E0TB 10045A98 Custom, and our handy dandy decoder says that would be an 82/83 with radio and w/o clock and mesh weave.

I could be wrong but I thought the base model for 82-up had no moniker and nothing in the nameplate area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delco1946 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Jeepers is that what these go for? I pulled one out of the junkyard in nice shape that I should sell asap then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't miss that the one listed is New/Old Stock, meaning it has never been mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salans7 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Don't miss that the one listed is New/Old Stock, meaning it has never been mounted. I think what appears to be a 6 is an accidental imperfection in the "0". There's no way this thing is from 1986. The 85-86 bezels didn't have silver edging like the 80-84 bezels did.
