you are the man this thread summerizes everything you need.

Be carful buying just the head unit off ebay. I bought one, then found this thread and another thread and realized I needed:

headunit: $138 shipped
wiring harness: 6.50 and 5.50 (one for the alpine, the other Swchrosh adaptor)
Metal surround thing: $23.00! what a rip!
ipod cable: $15 (don't buy the one from Hong Kong, those guys take forever to ship even though its $2.00 cheaper)

Thats like almost $190, I think I paid too much for the HU, but it was a BIN deal and I didn't feel like waiting.

and THEN I found out that this head unit doesn't have sound controleld volume like the old acapucalaki.

Does anyone know which wire is for the SCV on the blaupunkt mp 62 radio?
