hey, not to be a dick, but try the search button. it's been said that pioneer makes them, but they're pretty shitty compared to the 1 din's. and there's a flush mount you can buy that makes the 1 din look somewhat stock. they can even put "camaro" "firebird" etc that light up on the mount as well. try humount.com i think that's where they come from.

I did use the search feature already. I guess I should have put I already know that Pioneer makes one and that I know Alpine doesn't make one anymore. I've done some searching on the web also and didn't have any luck. I was wondering if anybody knew of any other companies besides Pioneer.

Check out my sig for the Alpine CDA-D857. Alpine does not make them anymore and you might find a used one.

I saw the pics of your Alpine the other day. I really would like to find one like yours. The color display looks awesome.

The new Alpine's do not look as good as the older models, IMO. Plus, the amber illumination matches the Pontiac's red interior lighting.

Pioneer makes three 1.5DIN headunits, that I've seen. 2 US models [DEH-47PH, DEH-77PH] and one for Canada/Europe [DEH-66DH(?)]. You'll have to do a search for specific features and specs on these.

The only other 1.5 DIN heads I've seen are made by low-end manufacturers not worth bothering with.
