a good-looking stereo for the mk3 golf

i had the original vw beta when i bought the car but sound quality was really poor. switched to a sony cdx-m610 and i liked very much it specially when closed. the model was outdated so i switched into a pioneer deh-7500mp mainly for the mp3 function. loved the sound quality but unfortunately the cd deck broke so i decided to search again for a new stereo. many of my friends loved the sony for its looks, so i need ideas for a new modern stereo but which suits the original golf mk3 dash. what stereo do you have and does it look better?

 

Installed something similar to this in my girlfriends Mk3


Blends in with Mk3 dash v well as you can alter the colour of illuminated parts 7 screen, plus it's black plastic like a Mk3 dash

Tis personal preference but I think a bling bling head unit that lights up a different colour to rest of your dash stands out like a sore thumb

 

or dont bother tbh

 

@ben thank you, but i dislike the idea of a frontal usb. i want a rear one which i can fit in the glove compartment via the cable.
@matt i think that this vintage sanyo costs more than my whole car.

 

i think im going to have my friend's second hand Alpine cda-9855. great SQ. what do you think?

 

if you can get the Alpine sound quality is good had them for years

 

installing the Alpine... ill let you know.
