Installing Parrot Mki9100 Bluetooth Car Kit (in Vauxhall Zafira B) Pt2 - The Shopping List

Unfortunately although I took lots of pictures during installation I either:
* Didn't take any before (showing how 'messy' and how many components need to be installed.)
* Somehow lost them...
Anyway here goes (with some stock Google images, which I will replace with my own if I come across them):

The Kit itself


The removal key


The SOT-122 Cable
(See how big/messy it can get yet?)

And the MOST helpful book ever - The specific Haynes Manual for my car

On a side note, You might wanna get a few tools (if you don't already have them lying around the place...)
I ended up using :
* T20 Star-Bit screwdriver (ideally magnetized!)
* Flat-ended Screwdriver (should have been a plastic spatula.)
* Torch
* Cable grabber/pick up tool
* 1 Flat crimp connector and the tool to fit onto the cable
* Cable Ties and other cable tidy accessories
* Pliers/scissors to cut of excess cable tidies
And maybe a few latex gloves or plasters incase...

Update: Actually I did take a couple of photos:

1st we have the kit and associated cables that need to be installed and hidden within the car.

Grouped together is what the connections on the ISO SOT-122 cable look like

And lastly the famous 12v Battery, Ignition Feed which I read up as being problematic during my research.  Basically if not wired the correct way, the system wouldn't say 'Goodbye' and would drain the car battery.
