You will need;

£80   New Gateway (speak with Eddie-NL, he can provide them precoded)
£10   Fakra antenna adapter bought from ebay - http://tinyurl.com/keozfav
£250 RCD-510 head unit. They sometimes come up on here but you can also get them on ebay. Make sure the head unit comes with the security code and is from a UK car NOT from China!

You don't need one BUT I'd get one and for around £10 you may as well. FAKRA antenna adapters are available from eBay....
