Hey everyone, 1st post!

Just as a clarification i am a proud Mini Cooper S fan-boy ;)

but my best friend got a 2003 bug, which i am pretty sure is the base model.
She wants to get a new stereo from stock. I have installed 4 systems before (97' and 98' corolla, 05' neon, and focus) most are just straightforward match the wires, solder, and your set.
So besides dash adapter for a single DIN, wire harness adapter, and antenna adapter is there anything else i need to know?

i have done littleresearch so far because i know how helpful some forums car be! :)

i know there are a lot more speakers+tweeter, do they have crossovers, or is the speaker wiring a little wacky?

Also where is a wire diagram for the car, and is there a how-to for removing the dash to get to the goodies of the stereo?

I am fairly skilled, but far from an expert.

Thanks for the quick replies, sounds good.

@pm22071985:

I dont think there is any adapter that goes directly from VW to alpine thats where butt-connects or soldering comes in.. i have never seen that before.
