About the Blaupunkt Frankfurt Stereo Classic

Who it suits
It suits classic car owners and enthusiasts who want authentic 1970s dashboard styling alongside modern features including DAB+ and Bluetooth.

Our tech experts advise
The unit has a short installation depth and fits standard axle-mount or 1-DIN slots; all mounting hardware is included in the box. Bluetooth Twin Connect lets two phones pair simultaneously, and the supplied external microphone needs mounting in the cabin for hands-free use. Professional fitting is priced per vehicle — see our installation service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this stereo fit my car?
A: Most vehicles need a fascia panel, wiring harness and sometimes a steering wheel control interface to fit a new stereo. Contact CEN with your make, model and year and we will confirm the exact installation kit needed, or browse our Connects 2 installation kits.
Q: Will I keep my steering wheel controls?
A: Yes, in almost all cases. A steering wheel control interface retains your existing buttons with the new stereo. Parts are sold separately.
Q: Does this stereo support Apple CarPlay or Android Auto?
A: Check the Specification tab, which lists smartphone connectivity for each model including whether CarPlay and Android Auto are wired or wireless on that unit.
Q: What is the difference between single DIN and double DIN?
A: DIN refers to the chassis size. Single DIN units are the traditional slim format, while double DIN units are twice the height and typically carry a touchscreen. Your vehicle's dash aperture and fascia kit determine which fits.
Q: Can CEN supply and fit the stereo?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional supply and installation from our Nottingham premises, including fascia, wiring and steering control integration. Contact us for a fitted price.
Q: Will the Frankfurt Stereo Classic fit my classic car?
A: It is designed for various dashboard mounting slots. Mounting material is included for axle (shaft) mounting and for 1-DIN slots, and it has a short installation depth.
Q: Does the Frankfurt Stereo Classic have DAB?
A: Yes. It has a DAB+, FM and AM high-end tuner with radiotext/DLS, traffic function and an alphabetical DAB station list.
Q: Can I connect two phones?
