or maybe your friends have a sense of volume control?

OEM honda radios just do not compare to a quality aftermarket headunit and amp.

no, the head unit would get to hot. Sony's new navigation is made by alpine, there head unit are no where near alpine quality and they have very minimal output.

A few of my Alpine head units have dual illumination, and the amber looks good in my Si. I would skip the oem stuff and buy an Alpine if you can swing it.
