Sticky: Difference between a 2003 300A and a 300B

I guess my 03 is a mongrel of sorts too it has all the 300A features plus the dot Matrix windshield, traction control with the mini spare.
 
My '03 built 10/25/02 has traction control and power fuel door release.

It's a 300A
You seem to be in the transition period of "Pre-Decontented MMs" that have a mix of both 300a and 300b features. Think that this happened between 7 Oct 2002 and 28 Oct 2002. As I recall, Martyo's MM was built in that timeframe.
 
300A's were the first issue of Marauders they were all black and had the following equipment...

Auto release fuel door YES
In-dash Clock NO
Map pockets in the front seats UNSURE
Full size spare YES
Auto Release Parking brake YES
Windshield tint NO
Hood light NO
4R70W Transmission YES
Single engine knock sensor UNSURE
Black Valve covers YES
2400 Stall convertor UNSURE


Only options for the early 300A's were a trunk organizer, rear spoiler, and a 6 Disc CD changer.

300B's came out mid year and were offered in black, silver and dark blue pearl. They had less features then the 300A so they are considered "Decontented"

Differences on the 300B are...

Heated seats NO
Traction control YES
Manual fuel door NO
Mini Spare NO
Dot Matrix on upper portion of windshield UNSURE
No map pockets
Clock in radio YES
No Hood Light

I must have one that was in the middle of the transition as well.

No heated seats though...redundant as she's never seen cold, or even a cloudy day! :grad:
 
Thanks so much for this info. Im still new to this forum and im finding out so much about my MM. but the one thing I didn't know is what was the differents in them all and what there different names were. I have such a better understanding of them now and I guess I have a MM 300B. Thanks again
 
im guessing mines a 300a cause i got the full sz spare but i got the sunroof would this be the 300a????

Full size spare isn't the only criteria, the key items are map pockets in the front seats, remote fuel door release, no TC, clock in the dash trim panel etc.

If your car is an '03, the moonroof was an aftermarket installation. Moonroofs weren't offered as an option on the car until '04.
