Started fitting new headunit dab aerial and microphone in place radio only loosely fitted due to the fact the cheap ebay fascia kit I bought has been a nightmare to fit. Tried a few times to se the unit to the fascia ended up have to drill new holes n the mounting brackets a none lined up also had to cut the whole bottom section of plastic out as the radio sits very low in the opening. Not really happy with how the radio is attached to the fascia so at a later date will add the camera and hopefully knock up some metal brackets to bolt onto the original fuel computer mounts but its going to be such an awkward time consuming job. So tomorrow will wire up the reverse and handbrake wires for the headunit
