The wiring for the aerial is extremely short, because it comes across the car, from passenger side to drivers side and zip-tied in the middle to the rest of the wiring. Take out the tray under the glove box and drop out the ash tray (3 screws I believe) then with some wires cutters and hand scrapping, cut the ziptie, be extremely careful though! | |

yep change the cage over and the wiring block should just clip into the back of the new head unit. the cage is removed by a blot at the back. Just use a socket and extension bar. then a bit of gental presuasion with a flat head screw driver should see it come out. then fit the new one by replacing the bolt and using the screw driver to bend up the little metal falps to hold it firmly in place. | |

Yep, should do - use the new cage though, not the old one. You may also need to get an aerial adaptor depending on your new headunit if you want to listen to the radio. | |

You can get an adaptor to convert the wiring plug so that it fits directly into the back of the headunit. This may not be needed though what car have you got as it may already have an ISO wiring plug (the size and shape of plug on most after market headunits) | |
