Question Head unit for Europe

My car is going to make the trip across the big fishing pond soon and I'm having some work done upon arrival. One thing would be installing a stereo head unit that has the appropriate frequency scale for Europe.

I currently have the CR-210 (cassette) with a 6 CD changer in the trunk. I'd like to get a head unit with a CD in it as well and the RDS feature. My preference would be to retain a stock look (and ability to control the changer) Anyone know what would be a good unit to look for that has the above features?

Take a look at www.ebay.de (yes, we invented that )
You frequently find porsche cdr cd-tuner for not that much money.
I think you can even use your us eby account.

As you probably know the manufacturer of those porsche head units is becker. The look does fit the stock interior. They also have mp3, navigation and online features to download mp3 while driving.

Pete - hadn't driven it for about 4 weeks (too darn busy) and finally pulled the cover last night. What a rush!! There is no substitute for this kind of fun !!

Also found a guy to ship it with. He seems to be Intercitylines' regular agent for overseas. In addition I have a potential shop for working on the stuff that needs changing. I also found out how to register over there. So the whole thing is shaping up. The only thing I don't know is how much needs to change to meet the TUV, but I think not that much.
