which deck?

i am looking for a cd player for my new trans am.. not new but myu project car. i made the mistake in my last decision to go with a ****ty brand because i liked the design of it and paid dearly and wasted 200 bucks on constant skipping at every bump in the road.. you guessed it.. a jensen. well i am buying a new one for the 85 trans am and i need help choosing a good one. i want something that doesn't skip much or none at all, i want blue lights on it.. cause blue is cool, and i want it to look cool.. my price range is no more then around 250, i checked crutchfield.com for some cd players but don't know which one i should purchase and need some help. thanks! or if anyone on the board is selling one show me what you got

Alpine, only 19 more than your budget, but ikesound has free shipping so it in a way makes up for it. This is the one im getting as soon as i get money.

and if you havent see one of these in person, the blue is much less purple and more vibrant than that picture, it glows nice and bright like a nice blue led.

I would step up and get Eclipse. Thieves don't steal them, but they pick Alpines like strawberries. They are electronically disabled if stolen, that is the reason.
