OEM style head unit?

[22Silver]

I'm sick of my head unit.
It does some weird PI search for 5 mins before letting me listen to the radio station I've selected, there's no bluetooth or AUX and it just doesn't look right.

Anyone know of any OEM looking head units? Black, but not TOO glossy/new/black. Slightly rounded corners, simple non-futuristing styling, etc?
Pref very basic, FM radio (AM optional, lol) AUX in, CD player.

My current one is like.. matte silver, with bits of yellow/white showing where the silver is missing, blue and orange lights, colorful screen. God damn.

I use this Kenwood in my NB8B, also used in my previous Jaguar (the display colour is variable to suit. Light green for the Jag, orange for the MX5). The best thing about the 7056 is that the screen/clock is visible even in direct sunlight with the top down, unlike the screens of some of the other Kenwood models.

My only complaint is that it's a bit troublesome to switch between radio bands/stations (have to use the rotary knob, no preset buttons). I guess that's the price of an uncluttered look.

Nakamichi head units are the nicest looking ones out there in my opinion.

But, they don't seem to have as much features as the usual stuff from Kenwood etc


The main reason I never changed the stock head unit is because pretty much everything these days looks like it belongs in a nigthclub.

+ 1 on Nakamichi if you want the OEM look.

Also, consider looking at some of the Blaupunkt head units.

I went for a Clarion CX609A

The current version is the CX509A but I prefer the CX609A (square buttons as opposed to offset round buttons).

Is mostly black - variable colours for the display and other lights (not too many) so you can set to any colour you like.

Looks OEM-ish - have actually had comments that it looks like it came with the car.

Excellent unit - rear usb for iPod/iPhone and Bluetooth. Great sound.

I have the older version of this.

With DAB+ and USB connectivity I have never played a CD in the car since getting this unit.

The cleanest looking head unit I've seen recently is the Blaupunkt Toronto 420.

I have an eclipse cd5030 which you can pick up pretty cheap now.matt black, great sound and i think blends in nicely.
