1st off, Welcome to the site.
2003 MM 300A's come only in black with dark charcoal interior and have the following features: underhood light, front seat pockets, stand alone clock, auto E-brake release w/ manual over ride, locking gas door, and full size spare wheel with 235/50-18 tire. (Canadian 300A models have traction contol)

2003 MM 300B's have all of the above deleted in favor of traction control. Colors could also be blue and silver. light flint interior is also available. Some early 300B's have the options stated above with the exception of the full sized spare.

300A's are older than 300B's.

Traction control is on the 300B.

Full size spare, 300A.
Donut, 300B

Separate Clock in the dash, 300A.
Radio Clock, 300B

Electronic fuel door release, 300A.
finger cut out for fuel door, 300B.

There are other features that separate but I'm not sure.

I myself am still not sure what the decontended 300B means.

I won't go into great detail but too give you a idea. The 2003 Marauders have A & B 's. If you have a 2003 with pockets on the front of your seats, or a clock in the center of your dash in the trim piece it is a 2003 A . If you don't it's a 2003 B. The 2003 A are the earlier modles and the 2003B's are later. Their are more differences like alot of the 2003 A's don't have traction control and most of the 2003 B's do. Now if you have a 2004 their is no A or B.

2003 Marauder 300A has a nice
big TINT at the top of the Windshield
the 300B has a few crapy matrix dots!

I forgot to mention options. 300A MMs have a choice of the 6 disc CD changer and a trunk organizer. 300B MMs also can have heated front seats.
