think it just plugs in but could be wrong, if so it would only need adaptor.

however you also need the antenna for the satnav to work and also the satnav dvd.

You can get versions from china on ebay that have betetr nav usb sd and much more functionality for that price bud just as a suggestion... they were good in there time but very dated bits of kit IMO

the sat nav system is renowned for being a bit poo on the mk4 platform...
