What?....
Thanks much,
This is getting confusing. Do you think I should be looking for a older Blaupunkt cassette-radio, or one of the two Becker models mentioned?....Would an older model be preferable to a new, inexpensive model. I like basic, old style. I like the knobs...and the push buttons to set the stations. The trouble with ebay is that you have to trust the seller regarding the quality... |
If it's good sound you want, forget the old stuff and put in an Alpine head unit so you can run a thumb drive or your phone.

Double din Alpine in '85 300D.
I had to remove the ashtray, move the HVAC controller, and cut/customize new wood. |
Lindajane - the Becker 599 Model has knobs for volume and tuning. It also has a cassette tape player and is a perfect fit for the W123 cars. I usually see fully functioning 599’s sell for $200 +.

Oh boy. First I tried to buy some thin zebrano wood and match the stain - that was an epic failure after nearly a month of testing stain mixtures and poly coats.
I eventually ended up buying new wood trim for an 80's SL model off of eBay, and it wasn't cheap (sorry I don't remember the full details). |

Greetings, maybe this will be helpful to someone if planning to put modern multimedia in w123. I've done it this way:

Side note. Noticed your third picture shows the same interior but manual transmission. But a very impressive setup. Very inspiring.

W123 Front Speaker Grills ?
Okay, long ago this thread had a question : "How do you get the speaker grills off of the dash? I undid the screw and slid it out from under the A-piller, but I couldn't get the front lip out from under the dash. "
My question is : how the heck do I get that same tab back under the dashboard's lip ? . I have the front speakers out and no matter what I can't get that tab to go into place . TIA, |
