did you get the boot changer or the in-dash changer?

if its the former its a dealer only part and will set you back about £40 - then you got to run it from the front to the back..........

run from the headunit down the passenger side - its the only way it will go as the lead isn't long enough to go the other way

glove box out
remove the door sill trim
remove the lower b-pillar trim
remove the trim by the rear seat
remove the trim inside the cubby hole in the boot

You got the bracket to mount the changer in the cubby hole?  think thats about £20 or so
