Default Which head unit looks best in S2k?

Looking to upgrade sound system but I am real anal about keeping as close to a clean factory look as possible. One that matches the orange/amber interior lighting would be great too...any suggestions appreciated!

I just installed the Nakamichi CD-400 with Modifry's DCI. It looks clean and isn't not flashy like most headunits...plus it sounds clean too.

I'll take some pics this weekend.

The higher end Alpine's with the color change buttons match nicely too.

Your just paying for the name...plus they don't even make they're own product. I'll take Alpine or Eclipse over nakamichi.

the question wasn't what is the 'best' head unit, it was 'which head unit looks best.'

in terms of matching the stock look, the nakamichi is the closest.
