If you haven't bought the head unit yet, Dennis at "Double D Mods" can sell you the entire "kit"....
Head Unit, bezel, wiring adapter, antenna adapter, mounting brackets

http://www.doubledmods.com/category.sc?categoryId=8

He's a forum supporting vendor and a good guy to work with. I used his "kit" for mine and love the results. I believe he can even supply instructions for the install too

Good luck....

I had the Alpine-W205 in my C5. My installer slightly trimmed the dash piece and it was flushed.
