Double din navi in red? Well ive been shopping around for a Double Din Navi and was getin ready to pull the trigger on a Pioneer when I thought to myself. Every light in this car is red, Why would I buy a headunit with blue and make it kind of stand out. Is there any manufacture that uses red lights for the buttons on there navi? or is it somthing im going to have to open the unit and install red LED's?

Pioneer used to make a point of saying that display colors could be changed on all AVIC series head units but the latest models just mention it in the owners manual. You can choose from 11 different illumination colors.
Kenwood double DIN navigation head units also feature selectable colors (8-bit RGB custom colors = 512 colors). Kenwood also features GPS systems by Garmin.

I have an Avic F90Bt and you can definitely change the colors on it.
In fact, I am considering selling mine (one of them, I have two) because I'm thinking I may not want to deal with putting a double din in my Camaro after all..
Not that I'm ever REALLY going to use the Navi in my "play" car...

Yeah, but not to sound "cheap" but it seems like those guys want an arm and a leg just to mod that bezel... I feel like I should just do it myself rather than pay someone a ton of money... and THAT is why I'm saying it's kind of a pain.. cause I'd have to mod the bezel, etc.
The install itself should be a piece of cake... I've already done one in my Denali and that is a MUCH bigger deal with Onstar, Bose and steering wheel controls! Talk about a long day!
But I DO love that head unit...
hmmm.. got me thinkin.

I made my own custom bezel cheap. I think it cost me under $20 (not counting the cost of the 3M spray glue which I have plenty left for other projects).
