I got the top part of the unit.

Back in the mid-60's, when we converted from 4-tracks to 8-tracks, AND when GM was in its' infancy of installing AM/FM's in their vehicles, the Stereo for the FM came from a multiplexer. It mounted beneath the dash and the wiring was dependent on the radio for completing the unit. When 8-tracks became more popular, the added the 8-track player function to the Multiplexer.

I would like to have a "plain old" multiplexer, to go with my AM/FM that needs to be "repaired". I believe it will fit in my '69 dash, and having the multiplexer would just be nice to behold. During the repairs, having it modified to accept my XM tuner output would be the berries!
