take a look at www.leoncupra.co.uk - my car website. I am sure in my install diary you can see pics of my new Pioneer hu which matches the dash colour nicely.
Lots of other units out there - Becker ones look quite good too.

question

thanks for the pictures have another problem getting the power cable into the car from the battery i have to use really really thick cable do you know where the best place is i know you can run it along the bulk head and in the driverside but it then has to run passed the fuse box and relays which will give me problems with interferrance which i had i my mk4 golf any ideas please

run the cable along the passenger (nearside) of the car - the same side as the battery.

From the battery you will find a cable box that runs underneath the airbox and then back up to the window height before going through the bulkhead. At the bottom of this (before it bends up towards the windscreen) there is a grommet that comes out just underneath the glovebox in the passenger footwell. I used a wire coathanger extended to thread the cable through.

head over to www.icecavern.com and speak to the guys (esp pete) there - they know a lot about this stuff
