The only hard part... if you can hard, it to route the wires to the front of the car to the Comand Unit. Since you'll have to remove the front panels to install the comand anyway, that won't be a problem. The trunk area is pretty easy since there is plenty of room. THe last thing is mounting the antenna on the rear glass. You have to remove some panels on the rear near the rear glass to mount the antenna. Try and hide the antenna as much as possible. It's a 4 way diversity antenna so you'll have to remove both sides of the rear panelling. Wiring is pretty easy. All it needs is a ground which is right near the tuner in the rear, and power 12+ which you will have to get from the rear SAM module. THe rear SAM module is on the rear left side of the trunk. You'll need 12v constant. THe video harness goes to the comand then.

You did get a 4way diversity antenna sunman...'but wether r207 will get a 4way diversity antenna as well???
In a US spec car the TV tuner fits straight in the rightside wheel well in the trunk...in a non US spec car that does'nt have the Bose sound option - however - the trunkliner needs to be replaced for one that leaves more space behind the liner for the TV tuner...
