I sent an email off to Tayman about the original Bendix radio that I have for 
my TR4 and he indicated that he would be able to do the conersion or it.  I 
would think that the later radios with the Leyland logo would fall under that 
category.  Gary at Taymon Electric seems very knowledgeable about car 
radios in general and also the conversion process.  I most likely will be 
sending him my TR4 bendix radio for conversion sometime in february.

Bill, thanks for posting the Tayman URL
