Could pick up any number of black CD/radios and change out the 
illumination to amber/red.  If you get a ~$100 headunit, there isn't a 
huge amount of money at risk.  Heck, the OEM Audi unit you say you would 
buy, if it exists, probably cost as much a 3 or 4 of those.  I did a 
quick search and the Sony CDX-GT100 looks like it fits the bill, though 
it is black and grey .  Not very OEM looking controls, but would likely 
blend in alright with amber illumination.  Looks like the buttons are 
already amber illuminated, so it would just be the LCD that needed new 
lighting.
