Default New Head Unit with Audi Red

Looking to possibly replace my Head Unit but I want to keep the Audi red. I've done some searching at local stores and nothing seems to come even close. I found a red that looked like it had all the life sucked out of it (more of a pink almost) but that was the closest thing. Does anyone have any suggestions of a good stereo that matches the Red?

Default Kenwoods red it pretty close

I have a Kenwood MP3/CD head unit and can select between red & green lighting for the buttons - the red is very close to my red.

Kenwood also makes head units with their "Color Shock Display" which can display 67 colors.<ul><li><a href="http://www.crutchfield.com/S-7Zva7BM2rnL/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?s=0&amp;c=3&amp;g=62700&amp;I=113MPV5 025&amp;o=m&amp;a=1&amp;cc=01&amp;avf=Y&amp;search =">http://www.crutchfield.com/S-7Zva7BM2rnL/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?s=0&amp;c=3&amp;g=6

Default Anyone have any night photos of theirs?

Yeah I"m really picky. I've gotten just too many compliments of cruising past ppl and all they can see through my dark tint is this deep red hue coming out. I can't have a blue or white light kill it!! hah

Default Here's some of mine - not the greatest. BWW

My head unit is the Kenwood KDC-MP522 (about 1 years old), it doesn't have the color shock display. At first I wasn't too keen on the blue lights, but they've grown on me. All the main buttons are red that match very close to the red lights of my car. I believe the head units with the Color Shock Display can be set to all red buttons and display.

This one is out of focus, could not get my camera to focus on the dash, even tried manual focus with no luck.

this one is a little better. I have a few button lights burnt out.
