Why are all the new head units so "funky"?

Don't get me wrong, I like a little funk, but I don't need a glowing neon display on my dash. My other complaint is that the ergonomics and easy-of-use of aftermarket decks never matches that of a good modern OEM deck, IMHO. As other have said, the Blaupunkts are good units a tend to blend well with the 9k dash. I also really like my older Clarion, though both brands have definetly stepped up the funk in the last few years. Crutchfield will provide you with everything you need, the only part that takes more than a few mintues is splicing their wiring harnes into the head unit's. Have fun, a new stereo is always a treat!
