lambolp400s Report post Posted December 13, 2011 Anyone have a list of what units Lamborghini used during the different years in the Countach? I am most interested in what models I should look for to periodically best suit my -82 mod. Photo too please. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jalpa_Mike Report post Posted December 13, 2011 Anyone have a list of what units Lamborghini used during the different years in the Countach? I am most interested in what models I should look for to periodically best suit my -82 mod. Photo too please. The '85, 86 & '87 Quattrovalves (and I think 88 & 88 1/2 also) used the Alpine 7273. Tony has a really good listing. Maybe he'll chime in here and post what he knows as well. Here is a shot of mine from my 1986.

Smash Boy Report post Posted December 13, 2011 The funny thing is those old Alpine units sound better than the new ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSS Report post Posted December 14, 2011 My UK 1989 Anniversary came with an Alpine 7385L. But it has been suggested that Lamborghini just put in whatever they could get cheap from Alpine at the time so different cars built at the same time may have had different radios.

ken qv Report post Posted December 14, 2011 ^^^ what he said.. i think they threw in just about anything Alpine was making at the time with some being more common than others, but i'm expecting another complete Lamborghini anomaly here...

blowndaytona Report post Posted December 14, 2011 Funny on the transition of the cars. A friend of mine has an 86 DD (which he is the original owner) and has an alpine with the two knobs like lcs posted pics from a 5000S. I also saw another 86 DD (rated X)with the same radio. Jalpa Mikes 86 has no knobs, but I noticed his car has the same HVAC distribution buttons as my 87 (which was built in 86) This thread is helping me figure out what really belongs in my car (not that I will listen to it anyway ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert-LP Report post Posted December 20, 2011 Here a radio in a LP5000s: http://www.lambocars.com/hr/cou/lp500s75a.htm which radio is this? i bought an Alpine 7273 radio for my 5000S, but although it's a 1984 radio, on my 1984 5000 S i think there was an older model like this. thanks ciao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Report post Posted December 21, 2011 You serious?????? Curious how you know that the 7909 is the shit? It's the greatest Alpine head unit of all time. Thats why I chose it.... The car came with a crappy 2000ish era alpine head unit that I yanked.... I own two 7909s (one for back up) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you own the 7909s since new or just picked them up when you got the car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
