With regards to car radio vibrators, there is a company in the states that manufactures new solid state replacements that work great. My dad was able to find the elusive one he needed for his Chrysler Highway hi fi record dash mounted record player. Here's a link to the company: http://www.radiosforoldcars.com/productsF.htm

Welcome to the Phorum, found this a few years back on the internet. Just use a 6 volt step down and pack every thing inside the old can hope this helps. David
