DIY Aftermarket Radio Self-Installation

OK... I just ordered my new Kenwood headunit, and would prefer to install it myself. What parts do I need to do this? I have printed the DIY guide to removing the headunit, but am unsure about the aerial adapter and the facia adapter... can someone please help me out with this> thanks a ton

I'm from the US if that makes any kind of difference as to the parts needed...

Go to www.partexpress.com or www.cardomain.com, I can't remember which site has it, but one sells the wiring harness adapter and the front fascia kit. Good luck!

If you have MFSW you might want to think about waiting for the combination harness/steering wheel controls from mikeythemini.

I dont have the MFSW, so that's a plus I guess here... I ordered the parts from the website above, i've never installed a radio before, but I might take a shot at it

which wiring harness did you order? I didn't know either of those websites had the correct wiring harness for the MINI yet.

I bought my kit from mikeythemini in the UK, wiring harness, fascia adaptor, antenna adaptor all from him. worked perfectly.
