I did mine myself. I'd already installed my stereo so had fresh iso harness wires which I just tapped into.

There's 4 wires:

Red - 12v constant - Red on my ISO harness for the stereo too.

Orange - 12v switched ignition - Blue on the radio harness from memory

White - Dimmer - Green and white wire on the radio

Black - Ground - Black also handily.

Just get blade connectors and tap them into the radio harness and you're quids in.

If I can do it anyone can.

if you use the radio loom colours are as following

Yellow - permanent battery power

Red - ignition live ( ie when ignition is switched on it becomes live )

black - ground or negative

orange - illumunation.

what st3ph3n said above is incorrect.. I wired my defi last week and thats the colours I found worked by using a multimeter to work it out.

I did mine 2 years ago, so 1 out of 4 wasn't bad!
