592 seems to indicate that your original hardtop has the heated rear window with compound safety glass, not the single sheet safety glass.
I thought the Exquisit radio was a European only option.

I don't know about the radio. When I bought the car it had an aftermarket one but a Becker Mexico cassette was included in the box of "spare parts". I don't think it works. Any ideas who can fix it? How can I tell if my hardtop has compound glass or not?

Outside of Becker themselves, I don't know if anyone fixes those radios.
As for the Compound Safety glass, look for the defroster lines. If they are vertical, it's Compound Safety glass. If they are horizontal, it's the Single Sheet safety glass. The vertical elements are very hard to see.
