I'd like to see pics of mounted aftermarket HUs
I'm looking at replacing my headunit. However, almost all the HUs on the market now have 2 big faults IMHO. #1 is that almost all of them are blue. Who the hell thought that blue is the best interior color!? Anyway, there are a few that change colors. #2, and this is the big one, they all stick out of the dash by quite a bit. I'm hoping that those of you who have replaced your HUs can post some pics here of how flush or not flush you were able to get them mounted. I can't bring myself to get it replaced if they all stick out half an inch.
Thanks all!

I also have the 7995 but havent put it in yet. I know the main color of that head unit is that ice blue color, how does that contrast with the orange gauges? Does it look good at night?
Here is my Head Unit I installed a week after I bought the car. Its a Pioneer 9300. Worth over $500 new, I will sell mine for $250 shipped. It comes with a steering wheel remote also.
I have since upgraded with a Pioneer AVIC/N1 DVD/Nav system.
