is the display lighting color able to be changed? I am looking to keep the illumination as close as possible to the amber of my instrument cluster.

Isn't included this feature, if want different feature colors see Pioneer or another brands.

Hello Ronald, for me I didn't find a color changer on the this headunit, The screen lighting color is navy blue and the writing is in white. The buttons [1,2,3,4,5,Disp,CD Eject, SRC and Menu] has an amber backlighting. The Call and Hangup buttons are green and red, respectively. and both knobs has a very thin round dark blue color. Please refer to this image gallery link [its the headunit installed in my car]: http://imgur.com/a/skE04

You can set it to blue but if I recall it will eventually cycle to other colors. It's not here with me atm so I can't double check.

I apologize for the delayed answer. I returned my unit because I didn't think the LEDs were bright enough to light the space I had in mind. I think the unit's LEDs, even if all were lit to yield white, would be washed out by the lights, unless perhaps the 60 watt lamps were quite far from the white wall. If you used only one of R-B-G sections of the Mega Bar, I think the color would show, but the color would be at least somewhat washed out, if not quite pale. Finally, I think the LED technology in this small package needs some growth and improvement, probably with brighter LEDs to begin with.

If you are lucky enough to get an operational version of this, YES. There is the option to be able to set things to just be a solid color. It is a decent light when it works, but I would recommend a Eliminator Electro 86. It is more expensive, but chains together and seems a little more reliable, plus there is a 1 year warranty. I hope this answers your question.

It should be an off white color. I've had mine for two years. The lights are a dull looking not quite Amber. I only use it for Christmas only.

It's white on black. When you push the light button, the white information turns red... So it's red on black only then. There's no way to change any of this

I tinted mine with a bright white and changed it a touch darker but not bad, it was still white.

Yes you can, I have mine set to red because the blue light is almost blinding.

yea i noticed that in the onset, Sometime even when i changed the brightness manually it would stay the same. I restarted my machine and some pending updates were installed i don't kno if that fixed it but it has not happened since.

I do not believe you can select what colors the lights will chase to. That might be a feature on some of the more sophisticated light controllers.

You can dim the brightness. I for as I know there is no way to change the color of the display.

Hi GLG, You can adjust the brightness for the display of this device that will suit your taste. Dave

The color changes to a amber hue during the dusk and dawn hours but the object remain clearly visible. They have a good range in total darkness with the IR on. It has worked well for me.

In all honesty, the default settings on this guy were pretty amazing. I did mess with the brightness a bit, but other then that I left it alone. I recommend you play around with the settings as the previous comment said. Everythings going to be different according to your tastes. You can also google/youtube the monitor settings as well. People usually post their settings there.
