The templates were part of the Blaupunkt installation kits, which
were specific for each model of car. The kits included the knobs,
faceplate, a vinyl surround (not for Type 34s) and mounting hardware
for the radio itself.
The antennas themselves were separate, and not particularly model
specific. You got to choose from about a half dozen models, only some
of which were appropriate for the cutout called out in the template,
so you needed to choose wisely.
