Well, I tried to install this thing the other night, but I was tired and I wasn't thinking things very well, and kind of gave up. I woke up the next day, and give it another whirl. I gotta say, it was much easier then what I thought it was. Anyways, here are some pictures.

Personally, I kind of like the light that shines through the bottom. So, I may keep it that way. But, I did put some tape up the top so there was no bleed through light up there.

In all honesty, I drive my car at night maybe 4-5 times a year. So the lighting won't be on much at all. I mainly got the HUMount so it sits flush with the rest of the radio area, and aesthetic reasons...IE the engraved "formula". I have another head unit(a sony) which lights up red, but I really don't like how it sounds. I may end up getting another HU, but I'm fine with the Pioneer that's in there now.

I have one , that looks great! I used black electrical to tape the inside so the light would not shine thru and If I can make a suggestion......... get a camaro HVAC control and swap the faceplate so you don't have those ugly gray *****. The black looks much better with the interior. just a thought not trying to be a critic. I put a firebird face plate in my camaro and did the rest in red.

I also have since upgraded that crappy HU to a Kenwood X995. So far I like the HU, but I'm not 100% sure how to set it up to get the most out of it.
