I think the tray was an option on poverty spec models, plus the centre console is barely long enough for a modern DIN fitting radio, I had a squeeze with mine and had to remove all the sound deadening and carpets from below the radio.  Fortunatley it doesn't drive the speakers or I would be worried about it getting hot.

i found out its the ushual on about 1983 models (or around that time)

thinking about it it does make some sense, you right the passenger cant mess with it, there is now space for a CB, and it is a bit higher 8)  :D
