A lot of those early 80s ones were actually fairly standard, the 2 knobs were always in the same place and the center part was the same size cutout weather it had the 'memory' buttons or a tape slot or not.. where you would find one that still works I don't know :)

I've still got mine, and it's working, so I'm keeping it, but I could take a pic of it when I come back from my trip, so you know what exactly you're looking for
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out

I don't think that they came with a radio but there was probably one available as an accessory, there was a fitting kit that went under the dash, above the gear lever and that took a standard sized radio.
