i recently installed one of these in my 91 model year (3/90 production) car. There is some wire splicing to do. I do think there is an ipod adapter that plugs directly into the 17 pin ibus connector at the back of the cd43, try to find the recent thread on this board, there is a link in it.
There was a post a month or so ago, i went thru which wire went to what. In that post, i missed the illumination wire, which goes to the orange wire on my connector.
In my car there was a page in the oe stereo users guide that listed the wire functions for the original stereo, but this is posted on the internet. If you google bmw cd43 you should find a couple more write ups for the install.
The factory harness in the car is pretty decently marked, LF+, LF- etc. You can either get the harness from the dealer or off ebay pretty cheaply (many of the ebay harnesses are factory connectors, the part that plugs into the back of the cd43, just cut out of the donor car).
