Check ebay the '91 had a very nice system, and I would try to keep it stock. Look on Ebay these radios are on there time to time, I may have 1 or 2 laying around, I accidently purchased them , my car needed the one with the On and Off button vs. the one you probably have with only the PWR button in the lower left corner.

These are Beckers. The company went bankrupt a number of years ago and they are not very good radios by today's standards. In fact they are quite awkful.

I have replaced mine with a Sony with 10 disc CD capacity. There are lots of better and cheaper aftermarket choices. Without all the junky electronics you can pretty much use anything you fancy.

91 560sel most likely has the 2 piece unit, a be1432.
I have them and the cd players for them.
