Pioneer din 1/2 old school radios - which one was orange?
Anyone remember the mid 90's Pioneer DH radios? Does anyone remember which model(s) had the orange display?
I bought a DEH-55DH off ebay and sadly the display is not orange. Now I need to sell it. :-) (Anyone interested?) If I recall correctly the orange display one looks very much like the one I bought, pic below:

This one looks close, but I had one back in the 90's and I don't remember it having any red?

Some of them have both green and orange. I remember one of mine had a button that you pushed/held for a few seconds and it'd switch colors. I'd definitely try to find out if that's an option before buying another one.

I'm starting to think the bottom one is the one I used to have. The top one doesn't have the EQ view like is shown in the bottom picture, which is the EQ view I used to use. My 16+ year old version of it in my mind thought the display was all orange, not red/orange. Maybe I was wrong.

Yup..You should be able to change the color along with the display pattern. There should we two color schemes on that model and later ones had more..

I'll hook it back up after work today and try pressing buttons. 
Either way the DI button did change the way the EQ looked, but I don't think the view I like (bottom image) was an option.
To confirm, you believe the DEH-55DH might be able to change display colors?

I think I had the DEH-40DH and that one could change colors.. I believe you had to hold that shift button.. I always left it on orange because the blue was too hard to see in the daytime..
