Tis a superb headunit, I'd definately recommend it.
PainZ on here has got that model, I've got the 9812RB personally - both very very good units though, plus you can get the wiring loom for the steering wheel controls

If you buy the silver adaptor from Vauxhall it'll come with the wiring loom as well
Failing that, Halfords, etc...
I *think* they've changed the silver in the latest SRI's though?
That's my 52 plate SXI

no as said get the fascia from a vauxhall dealer, the halfords ones DONT match the colour of the newer cars, painz had to bin his.
Get the harnesses from anywhere, u need 2, any local stero suppliers shud be able to help.

Ade is right - the silver fascia adaptor can be bought from Vauxhall - it'll be the right colour match then hopefully. That comes with the wiring harness.
For the steering wheel controls, assuming you go with an Alpine headunit then the any ICE dealer can order the 2 part wiring loom for that for you - it's about £60ish IIRC
