Blaupunkt

Has anyone swapped out their factory head unit in a 430 for a Blaupunkt unit? Realizing that the speakers etc are not the best, I am wanting to get some better functionality (Bluetooth, iPod control, etc) from the head unit while maintaining the factory 2 knob appearance. The closest thing I have found is the Blaupunkt Toronto. If anyone has changed it out, is the wiring harness the same - it looks like it may be on some models as it uses the European standard, but I haven't found anything definite. How about the locking mechanism in the dash?

 

Here is a picture if the unit

I swapped the Becker for an Alpine. The are several sources for a wiring adapter so you can retain the original OEM wiring. Here is a link for the adapter I used
