A few fairly minor differences on the '03 cars, the "B"s don't have front seat map pockets, separate dash clock, remote fuel door opener, auto parking brake release, under hood light, full size spare, and maybe a couple other things. In return, the "B"s got traction control.

FWIW, I'd swap my traction control for a remote fuel door opener if I could...:cool:

Whats this??? Auto parking brake release?

[Siege]

When you put it in D the parking brake releases.

[napolitano]

The A's go faster. At least mine does.

[screamn]

+1 on swapping from traction control to remote fuel door opener!!!

No one knows. :rolleyes: H3LL it has been nearly 9 years and we are still answering questions on the difference between the 300A and the 300B. There are several visible clues as to which is which if you have a keen eye and know what to look for.

Personally, I like the 300B 'cause that is when the DBP was introduced. Don't need a fuel door release. Don't need front seat map pockets to collect crap. Don't need an extra clock on the dash. Would like to have a full sized spare; but have learned to live without it. Have had T/C save my azz on at least two occasions over 8 years on wet-slick pavement. Easy to turn off T/C at the right time. ;) I take the 300B. Others probably like the 300A for exactly the opposite reasons.... and that's good too.

^^^^^ +1 ^^^^^^

[marauder410]

ok thanks for all the difference im happy with my 300a, i acually like the fuel buttom release and the pockets on front of seat and thats i have a full size spare used that couple times i hate donuts

[Chevyguy]

Remote fuel door is a PIA, but my last 3 panthers had it and I try to open the Marauder still

Auto parking brake release .. That I DO miss however it's a PIA enough not to bother trying to add it later.

Dash clock, would be nice I added one to my 2001 as I had a aftermarket radio. Same with the Marauder, the radio does display the clock eventually but not like the stock one with a seperate display.

TRAC.. Big time thumbs up.. had that in my 2001 too very handy when you hit the surprise spot

Front map pockets, look silly to me does anyone use it??

[marauder410]

i acually do use my front seat pockets and they come in handy for me personal opinion

[marauder410]

how hard would it be to put a traction control with buttom on my 300a and would it be worth doin and expensive

[marauder410]

i acually do use the front seat pockets
what if i wanted to put traction control with the buttom in my 300a
would it be worth doin have any1 done this to there 300a
would it be to expensive to even do

You'll need the ABS Module and HCU plus the button and trim for traction control.

My SB 300B has an underhood light. Go figure.

[Bluerauder]

My SB 300B has an underhood light. Go figure.

My 2003 Blue 300B has the underhood light too ... some do, some don't. Not sure exactly when the hood light disappeared.

Yeah...you remember that scene....right............when that guy on the production line got yelled at about not removing them ............saying to his line boss--"Oh Man---you mean we were suppose to stop putting them on yesterday=-----whoops---ok boss--th9s is the last one--gotcha." :lol:

There are about 14 Marauders that have all 300A features PLUS Traction Control--they were produced during the change-over from A to B--they have different shifters, shifter bezels, and other minor things randomly spread out among the 14 cars--sooo, they used up the A parts til they ran out--spreading the differences over the cars. I have one---MartyO has one. So, I think it is highly possible it happened on a few Blues. For what it's worth, Maury
