The new Eclipse headunits are balck and you can choose amber lighting. I'm planning on picking up the CD3200 to replace my Clarion DXZ845MC.
The CD1200 is under $200 if you want something basic. The CD3200 is $280.

i'm searching and searching and can't find anything. i realy need to change my sony cdx-something because it's dieing a slow death not finding tracks and stuff. i was considering CD43 but don't realy like the look. then i was considering a nakamichi but the is no nak dealership in my country so it's bye-bye 300$ if it fails. so i started to look for something more mainstream, found a nice black JVC but it had blue lights , found a semi-black alpine but id had shitty bling grafics on it, etc, etc. so i'm starting to lose it. does no manufacturer except nak make a black unit with amber lights?????
i don't realy care if it's cd or mp3, or about performance. it just has to look good in the e34 dash. so any ideeas guys?
Becker make a smart looking headunit with orange lights, try ebay, most of them have a built in nav to, best of all these units sit flush in the e34 and becker is a very well respected German make.Quote:

EDIT
They do still, with their DXZ775USB. You can actually adjust the entire screen for that matter on this one. My buttons match great by the way.

I have a Panasonic CQ-C1110AN which has amber lights. But I can' recommend it as I've only had it 3 years and it already sometimes refuses to play CDs (and I hardly use my car - I don't use it for commuting).
Blaupunkt do a black version of my headunit:
(I didnt know at the time of purchase!)

You can tune the display colour to anything you like, it wasnt quite right in the above image, not enough red in it.
the cd 43 is a blaupunkt,perhaps they have a unit you will like?
