Thanks rec.

I did find the wiring plug on the back of the steering wheel. It has 18 pins just like the instructions say. I plugged two of the wires (1 red and 1 black) into the 17 and 18 pin positions. I plugged the other two wires (again 1 red and 1 black) into the wire clip (supplied with the bracket & harness. Still I am not getting power to the unit. So something is not quite right. I may take it to a local shop (non-Mini) to see if they can help figure it out.

If you find any better wiring documentation for that 18 pin connector on the back of the steering wheel that would help greatly. I have searched many parts websites trying to find that without any luck.
