knock-off copy of a marine socket from Digi Key, I think.   I stuck it into
the 'grill' in the center top of the dash on my 84.  There was a funny
little plastic doilley covering a perforated section of the dash...probably
used to be for the radio.  I cut through the holes with a dremmel and
rounded it out with a file to accept the plug.
  Works well.
