Im replacing mine with an Alpine stereo and was wondering if there was
any market for these??...i own an 84 300SD

Oh yeah,there are a lot of MB owners that swear by these almost at a
cult level! Put it on ebay and don't forget to include the amp if
equipped.

I once said on another forum that they make great
wheel chocks and what a terrible uproar that remark generated!

ones from the 70s in good working & physical condition, sell for $100US or
more. Much less for the 80's models.

I'm not even sure on your model but in older ones they are mounted on
top of the unit itself,the Europa or Mexico I'm not certain 100%

No. There is no market. Any current, aftermarket cd head unit will smoke any
"vintage" Becker. It is noteworthy to discrete wire new aftermarket, 4 ohm ,
coaxial speakers. Do not us the wires coming off the mechanical,
dirt-collecting console fader. Your Alpine has an electronic fader built
into it.
