Its okay, It could take forever looking for the right harness adapter. I bought a soldering iron yesterday and went straight in. I have the wiring diagram I found on the web, so it was straight forward.

I just tapped in and soldered, I didnt cut the original ford harness.

What took me the longest is I lost power after disconnecting the original ford HU, fuse blew to the radio on the accessories and power line to the radio only. My longest time spent was looking for the fuse box, and only found the obvious one under the hood. Had to get my manuals to find the internal fuse box UNDERneath the glovebox!!!! which needed to be unscrewed and dropped down! thats one tight **** fittment. Well done ford.

So I borrowed the tail rego plate light fuse for the radio.
