I just put in a Kenwood with dual illumination (see yesterday's archives) and 
the orange goes pretty well, but it's only for the buttons - the display stays 
the same yellow/green all the time. Orange with yellow/green looks a lot better 
than green with yellow/green, I'll tell you that much. The numbers are yellow, 
the little dancing-lights disc is green. I think some Pioneers also have the 
dual illumination.

But actual red-type glowing, no, haven't seen any after a cursory inspection of 
the market.
