Who makes/sells this Becker radio?
« on: April 04, 2020, 15:37:58 »
Hello, I tried finding an answer using the search string "Becker retro radio" but did not get recent hits with valid links.  I borrowed the attached photo from a MB restorer website.  Can someone please point me in the right direction who makes/sells this radio?  Application will be my 63 W111 Cab.

thank you

How about Becker? I got my Monaco and speaker there.

Thank you for the links.  This is an amazing looking device but at close to $5K, I will pass.

I think those might have been discontinued a few years ago...

A good alternative is to simply add bluetooth streaming, hands free call ability etc to our original radios.

And though not cheap, it's a lot cheaper than buying the Becker Mexico retro

This is who I will be using:
