Define everything. Speaker connections get re-used, aerial is ok, power connections are available but may not have the correct connector. Everything just doesnt seem specific enough.

My 1990 300SE's previous owner replaced the factory Becker radio with a Nakamichi, whose rear lighting is broken. They gave me the Becker Grand Prix with the car sale, and I am thinking re-installing the Becker, since it's a pain not seeing any radio lighting! Not to mention restoting the integrity of the center console.



Circuit City days that they would need to rewire everything since it's a Mercedes radio. Is this true? I naively thought this would be a simple install.



Thanks, Pete

Don't replace a today technology head unit with an outdated Becker Grand Prix! Maybe the previous owner also replaced the junk, paper-faced o.e. speakers at the same time. If so, they are four ohm impedance and wouldn't match the Becker. P.
