Double Din Sat Nav Info mk1 Leon

Hi there,
Just wondered if anyone might be able to help me with a little bit of info.

I am considering installing the double din fascia into my mk1 leon, with the original intension of putting the mk1 leon sat nav unit in. Problem is (and this is assuming it is a mfd1 unit) that they are not widely avaliable, and im unsure on how it will integrate with my ipod and phone. As far as I can tell, these older units were not as flexible as the newer ones.

So, I figure an aftermarket unit is going to be needed, however I have no idea as to where to start with these. The features I want are as follows:

Sat nav (with traffic info)
ipod connectivity (from behind dash so I can hide the Ipod in the dash somewhere)
CD player (not bothered about DVDs)
Red illumination to match rest of dash.

Does anyone have any info that may assist me in my choice?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers for the info mate. I had a look, they are very well spec'd but no sat nav unfortunatley.

I have been looking at some of the Kenwood ones, like Kenwood DNX-5220BT. Does anyone have this one? Can the colours of the buttons be changed to red?

What about a unit from USA? I've been looking into a new sterio, do USA ones work the same as the UK ones, meaning will they tune into our radio?

Cheers mate, some interesting things on there. No detachable faceplates though. These things must get nicked all the time! How can they be secured in?
