which one to buy? (updated!)
 
i'm going to go get a C.D. Player for the bonnie tommarow. What kind should i look at and what kinds should i stay away from? I'm looking at spending around $150-$190. I want a knob for the volume, red backlight ( to match the rest of the interior lighting), and a remote control.

Got some feedback/sudgestions for me?

Thanks!

Pioneer DEH-P6600 works nicely. I'm not sure what color the lights are tho...
DEH-P3600 for $162 at walmart.com and the DEH-P4600MP for $180

Don't go sony, or Jensen or Road Gear

Well, i got a Panasonic CQ-C1200U. It has a blue screen and tunning buttons but the rest is illuminated red. It's great but, like always, you loose your controls on the steering wheel. Try to have some new pics. of it here soon!

Thanks for everyones advice!
