i asked this question a while ago, but now im getting one for reals and just seeing if theres anything new: what decent headunits are there that have amber coloring for a more oem look? i dont use an ipod, bluetooth, or any of that crap, just want a decent sounding cd player.

 

I know Eclipse HU's have an amber color scheme available (multiple color selections). Not sure about Pioneer and Alpine. When I had Alpine (years ago), the only available colors were blue and green (amber was used, but not an available main scheme).

I recommend either the Eclipse CD3200 or Eclipse CD5030.

 

the cd3200 looks like you can adjust the colors, but noone seems to have it in stock. i guess its being replaced by the cd5030(?) but i dont see it explained if you can change the color scheme on that one too....

 

I have the 3400. It does not have amber though. Only red which blends in a bit more. Has red green and blue.

 

3400 by who?

 

Looks like the CD5030 only has blue or red illumination. I would look at local stores to see if any have CD3200's in stock still. You might be able to find a CD8454 or CD3100 (older models) which also have amber illumination.

 

Oh sorry Eclipse.

 

Eclipse doesn't make a 3400 (at least, not yet)

 

Hmm thought thats what it was called. I will have to double check what it was again than. Maybe cd4000? Is that an eclipse one?

 

You might try a local Circuit City if there is one still around. I know with their price cuts the brand new 3200's were only $140
