 Radio Bezels
There were two radio bezels for the 71 Mustang. The one
at left is for the AM and AM/FM radio. Note the black strip (between the
red arrows) to accommodate the shorter face of these radios while the
version at right for the taller AM/8 Track required a taller opening
(black strip is removed).

 Telescoping Antenna
The part number for the 71 - 72 antenna is
D1ZZ-18813-A., which is a telescoping design. Note the '73 version (part
number D3ZZ-18813-A is different. It is a non-telescoping design.
Rear Mount Antenna Some owners with
rear mount antennas have asked us whether or not this could have been a
factory installation. Mr. F, of FoMoCo.com
provided the following info on this subject;
| Does anybody out there know the
proper location of the radio antenna for a 1971 Mach 1
Ford's assembly documents, promotional photos, etc.
are unambiguous in showing the R/H fender as the only "factory"
location. And even the dealer's radio installation kit comes with
identical instructions, including a 1:1 template for drilling.
However, it should be pointed out that it was
possible to order a Mustang sans radio. This also meant "less
antenna" and - in at least some model years - the antenna location was
not predrilled. In theory, then, the owner of said car was free to have
an antenna mounted wherever (and whenever) he desired. :-)

Dash Speaker
This is the speaker used under dash on the 71 Mustang.
It was part # D1ZA-19A054-A. At right is the speaker grill used to protect
speakers installed in the 71 Mustang doors. |

This photo shows the wiring and rubber bellows that
protect the speaker wiring harness. |

AM/FM Radio Manual
This is the manual that came with 71 Mustangs equipped with the
AM/FM Radio. It is Ford Part No. D1AA-19A016-AA and is 15 pages long. |
1971 Cougar Radios
General Information

AM 8-Track. These are described below;

AM/FM Radio |
 AM/8 Track |

Part number D1WA-19A242-AD |

Radio Bezel

The 71 Cougar Bezel is shown above. Like the Mustang,
two different opening heights were available depending on whether the
radio was an AM/8 track or AM/FM. |

Cougar Radio Bezel
Cougar (and Mustang) owners need to make sure they are
getting the correct bezel when buying at swap meets or E-Bay. Although the
Cougar and Mustang versions look the same at first glance, they are actually
different designs. In the comparison photo above right, note first that the
Cougar version has 5 mounting holes versus the Mustang's 4. This is a good
quick way to tell the difference. More importantly, note that the 4 mounting
holes are drilled in different locations between the two designs making them
NOT interchangeable.
