Factory looking head unit

GUNN · 01-12-2007, 12:06 PM

I'm in the market for a new head unit, but the only decent ones I can find are chrome trimmed, bright blue lights, etc. Is there any in dash unit that looks flush with the orange bmw lights that you have experience with? These ones stick out like a sore thumb. Thanks.

Not wise to change the display. Not sure what comes in a 323, but it might be the MID, not a radio.

Try with Becker, it's similar and a very great brand

some of the mid-high end alpines allow you to change the color of the buttons.

My old 9835 could do amber/red buttons. THe new 9965's specs looks yummy.

The not so new clarion hx-d2 has a gray steel look to match if you have titanium/aluminuim trim.

www.becker.de - I have a Cascade in my X3 and will most likely be putting one in my E92 when it arrives.

Sat Nav, Bluetooth, iPod and CD/radio all in one very stock looking package.
