Yea im really happy with it, does Ipod, bluetooth (will put the call through the car audio), and of course radio and CD's.

I like it a lot but the Blue LED although great during the day and you can see it even when the sun is on it, can and does get distracting at night, i need to go into the manual and see if I can dim it but I dont think I can.

I know I saw one that was the same thing but had the color changing funtion, and the burnt orange was one of the colors. I wish i would of bought that one before they stopped making it cause I couldnt find it any where, even on the net.

So, are they still making your unit? what brand is it? I am thinking about buying one of those Chinese models. They seem to give you a lot for the money. I would really like one with a good display of the music that is available.

I belive they still do, Im linking a youtube video of this guy using it so you can see how it functions and see if you like it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C05D3SsU8as

and heres a review: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zh7A...eature=related

and how it looks in the dark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugByX...eature=related

Also one of the features I used a lot is it has a Alphabetical search so if you know what you want to play(lets say Aerosmith) then you just search for A. and it will show all your arists that begin with A and it just makes it easier and quicker to find what you want to play. but if your just cruzing and wanna put it on random it has it's own random button that makes it easy to change it up on the fly.

Hmmm - never thought of the "look" of a particular head unit in someone else's car as being a means to judge a "good" one.

This deck would look good in your car (it looks good in mine)

This one would look even better and it's only $1,100
