Pics of your......radios

[granit_silber]

Hey All,

I've been wanting to replace the headunit (and eventually) the components in my car. But I love the look of the stock one and how it fits in with the rest of the cabin (funny how that works). So far the units I've found with features I want have bright shiny faces and buttons or have a contrasting light scheme.

So I'm wondering if you've replaced your headunit could you post some pics of what the unit looks like in day and night?

In terms of feature set I want a headunit that
plays cd's
has an aux in (or other connection think: iPod)
has a light scheme that closly ressembles the stock backlighting

extra's
nav would be cool
LCD screen w/DVD playback would be cool
subtle would be VERY cool

Right now I'm really thinking about the business radio from the Z3.

Thanks!

My Alpine headunit. This picture kind of gives you an idea of how it looks during day or night. Obviously doesn't match too well, but I didn't buy it to look pretty. When the OBC still had a working bulb it matched up surprizingly well at night. CD/MP3 player is a little bit brighter, but the red/orange light went together nicely. Not the greatest cosmetic upgrade though.

Make the backlight any color you want. Day and night color settings.

Ill post up one of mine tonight i have a panasonic mp3 deck that has red lit buttons and blue display, looks pretty good though. its not to flashy.

off topic...where would i find the bulb to make the three controls for the climate light up, the ones that control hot or cold and the knob for air speed coming out of the vents? those and the one that shows what gear im in are out. sorry to go offtopic though.

Nakamichi makes some very nice decks in subtle black with either orange or green backlighting...this is a bad photo but you can see a bunch at http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...facturerID=637 (google search)

I have the 400 in my E30 and it looks very nice. It sticks out like all other detachable face decks but it's black, subtle, has orange lighting, and sounds lovely.
