A plea for asthetic help.

Does anyone know of a metallic/silver stereo head unit that will match the window control switch surrounds. I saw one a few years ago before Cerbera Ownership, I think it was a Kenwood unit. I've tried the Pioneer website to death and even if they are a silver finish they still have lots of black/grey plastic on them.

I can't be the only one that would like the stereo to match the rest of the dashboard.

Thanks in advance

I like the look of this one:

Plays MP3's and looks pretty cool. Hope that helps.

p.s. It's £300 rrp, but only £180 or so at Dabs.

Thanks,

That's the sort of thing, the next question is will it plug into my Pioneer CD changer or would I have to get a Sony one, obviously a trip to a shop might be in order.

I've got this one:

Very good sound and matches in with the chrome surrounds for the window buttons.

try this one!

whats actually quite cool is that it has configurable colours on the face plate and surround, the colours happen to be the same colour as used on the switches (green,red, blue etc) so it looks very factory fitted!

The JVC one looks good, I'll have a look on the JVC website for that. I particulary like the 95/97 button!

95/97 button is for cars with red rose conversion.
