katit is on a distinguished road
Just got it installed today. Instructions was good. There was no instructions on how to remove radio and how to remove glove box. But I have Bentley manual so that wasn't a problem.

In my case I already had this black plug in back of my radio. So, I had to remove it, open it and move pins from connector that came in into corresponding spots in my existing connector. That wasn't a big deal, instructions is good except that color of one wire was wrong. But if you just use common sense and move wires into corresponding positions - this is all thats needed.

Also, see pictures on how radio lock works. Torx screw need to be turned counterclockwise to release latch. I'm honestly not sure what to do if this screw missing...

Everything works but I do have pretty bad ground loop when I connect cable to my Android phone and also use charger powered from sigaret lighter at the same time.
