Even if I need to fork out £120 for a harness, at least if it works and doesn't involve ripping the carpet up I could live with it.

Well with me, I was too cheap to pay the dealer £120 for a harness that is essentially a telemute lead.
As for the carpet I followed a different route than that of the OEM install and it saved a lot of stripping and was much easier to do.

Got the ULF now, all looks good, came with the card/key and book (one with with phone box on the cover).
|
Snap, that's exactly what I got, oh, I got the bracket too.

Hopefully all I need to do is get the cradle, mike, antenna and two cables now.
|
Strictly speaking you don't need the 2nd lead (sharkfin to cradle) or the cradle, but you deffo need the mic, BT antenna, antenna lead and a pair button.

If the dealers cant help with a cable how do you fancy getting your soldering iron out again (for a good price of course). Just the minimal cable would do.
|
I could be tempted, I've just converted a BitII lead to a BT lead , I also made it have a telemute option as he has a aftermarket HU, so he has that option as well as OEM.

Just need to check my TV/NAV connector tomorrow - hopefully it's ok on a 2003.
|
It's the radio module you need to check, for that year it should be a bm54 (same as mine), it should look like this...

Well done on your retrofit. You must have been as happy as a pig in poo when it all worked 
|
Thanks, I was bricking it mate, but over the moon, a great feeling when it all powered up and was seen by the nav.
