You only need to connect the wire from the antenna (blue with a red stripe, I think) to the blue or possibly orange wire on the head unit.

There are 2 blue/red wires in the AU radio loom - make sure you have the right one. I think the other one is a speaker wire so won't work at all.

We have installed quite few of these.Unfortunately we found many aerials labelled as AU Ford aerials simply did not suit at all.If you require further assistance we are happy to give some pointers
