Re: 68 Camaro multiplex
No such thing as a factory console mounted multi plex in a 68(or any first generation)Camaro. There were two console mounted 8 track units, one for a multiplex radio, one for the mono radios. Externally the units are identical, the multiplex one just has an additional harness on it to bring the multiplexed signal from the muliplex unit through the 8 track and out to the speakers. An 8 track player used with a multiplex radio used the same arm rest pad as a regular stereo 8 track player, and there was only one cover made and it doesn't have any seams along the edge, the vinyl is just streatched over the foam backing and glued on the back side.
A 68 multiplex only unit consists of a 4 knob control unit with a big green stereo light in the center mounted in the cover of the console door. The multiplex unit itself is mounted under the dash to the left of the steering column. Very rare setup, almost as rare as the multiplex 8 track unit.
