anyone have any pics of their installed HU w/ green illumination?

I'm looking to replace my stock Ford CD HU with an aftermarket CD player, and so far I'm leaning towards the Nakamichi 35z/40z/45z decks.

My criteria is as follows:

1. MUST play CD-R!!! (Ford deck SUCKS! It only plays them intermittently)

2. MUST look stock - no bitmap displays or snazzy gadgetry.

That's it! I want something that sounds good too, but that's honestly not as much of a priority at this point. I just want something that integrates well into the interior of the car and allows me to play my burned CDs.

Any posts would be appreciated. Thanks.

New Alpine 7894. Looks great in the dash. Though the buttons may be a bit too bright for me. It would be better at night in a city where there is more ambient light.

The "blackout" feature is nice. Shuts down the display, but not the buttons. Powers back up when you touch any button, shuts down a second or two after you stop.

I'll try to get a pic with my crapass digital camera tonight.

i'll take a pic of my pioneer. not too stazzy, but inexpensive, powerful, plays CD-Rs, and sounds a millio times better than stock.

nice alpine deck... I'm just not sure if it's a little too bright for me. The blackout feature does sound good, though. Thanks for posting!

Do you have that hooked up to the dimmer? My deck was never that bright. You should see it in the Focus, the match is perfect.
