The set that demon666 is selling in car parts (on iPhone so can't get link)

MDI uses a different loom to the cd changer/iPod dock. The set he's sellin has the loom, the mdi and iPod attachment lead

remove the armrest and ashtray (6 screws in total). you can feed the cable down the centre console . very simple
