Default Question about original AC Delco 8 track radio

I have recently purchased an original 8 track AM/FM radio on ebay which hasn't got the "plug" at the back for the speaker, live, etc connections ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2427781951) and whilst I'm not intending to hook it up (just put it in the console to keep it original), it would be nice to try it out to see what the radio & 8 track sounds like - does anyone know where I might be able to get hold of the "plug" from - I live in the UK, so if anyone can get hold of one for me, I'll happily pay for it to be bought & sent over here.

cheers
Mike :chevy

What you will need is a series of three plugs. One for power, one for front speakers and one for rear speakers. the plugs are not Corvette specific. They are the same plugs used on all GM cars from the mid 70's through the mid 80's. I am not sure how easy it would be to find a used set in a junkyard in the UK.
