Try searching on Cardomain (www.cardomain.com) for 850s and many of them will probably have custom HUs with several pictures.

I have an 850 I would like to put an aftermarket cd player in, but when I did it in my GTA, pontiac not ferrari, I really lost sound quality. The installers said the HU could only power four speakers and couldn't power all six. So I lost all the bass. So my question is it the sound quality the same with the new head units? Thanks.

I have a new headunit and can say that the sound quality is better. Just make sure that the headunit has enough outputs and power to power all of the speakers in the car.
