There are many other makes and places to buy, but that was a 2min search... Google is your friend

Just a point to note with that adapter listed above it won't be 100% plug and play, you will need to run a switch 12v live to the headunit as well

Funny enough, I'm just going through the same thing.....

Better bet is to get the CANBUS adaptor (£50-odd).

Available from http://www.awesomeautomotive.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=60_65&products_id=684

You'll also need a FAKRA adaptor.

I *think* I found an alternative supplier on Ebay, considerably cheaper though -

This all gets around the plugging into the fuseboard...
