Default Help Finding New Headunit

I want to put a new headunit in to replace my factory stereo but i am having trouble finding a decent quality one backlit in red. I'm not going to sacrifice audio quality for visual quality but i would like to keep everything matching (ie gauge's are backlit red). So far the only ones i have found are sony which dont have the best audio quality in my experince. i have always been a fan of pioneer but currently, most of thier products are backlit in blue or green. i'd like to stay under $200 for the actual unit if possible (not including installation). any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. thanks.

Look into Eclipse - some of their units have selectable backlighting if I remember right - you may be able to find one that will allow you to select a red backlight so you can keep the look consistent.
