2003 jetta GLS factory stereo to aftermarket stereo question

I have a 2003 Vw Jetta GLS with the premium stereo not the Monsoon !
double din CD + tape
pic of radio { http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...4_DD_RADIO.jpg }

i am been doing my research and i am really stumped...

i know i need these stereo keys { http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...ND_42_002.html }

Which will i need- antenna adapter for the stereo
Http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...l/40_EU55.html
http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...l/40_vw53.html

i need this dash kit [ or one like it ] { http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...8_00_9008.html }

now for the question i have talked to car toys. going to go to best buy tomorrow but i have been looking for a few days.
which stereo wiring harness do i need ?

http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...l/70_9003.html
no 12v RAP wire

http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/METRA_80_9003.html
Only has a 12v RAP wire

http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...AC_C2R_VW.html
has all the bells and whistles but ... does my car ? - this is the one car toys wants to sell me -

please note
"Reverse signal, Park light signal, Vehicle speed signal and Parking brake outputs. If the vehicle has steering wheel controls then use the SWI-CAN interface"

"2002-2005 VW Vehicles do not have a reverse or parking brake signal on the can bus. The green and red/white wires do not function for these model yeah vehicles. Parking brake and reverse signal wire's can be foud with a volt meter in the vehicles factory wiring. Vehicle must have the factory installed double din headunit (4" tall)."

doesnt that mean i dont need the 100 dollor one and i can stick with the one with just the 12v PAC wire ? do i need the other crap ?
also each website i find tells me something different
thanks for any help

please note will not nessisarrily buy from this site was just using these products as examples as all the other products i found were the same ish thing

Talking Re: 2003 jetta GLS factory stereo to aftermarket stereo question

I have used Car Toys with my 2000 Beetle and am very pleased by their work. The sold me what i needed and nothing more. The part you are looking at looks familar and is a much easier hook and go. No splicing. It also will keep your Jetta OEM if you decide to change back. I would go this route.

I can listen to things on it THAT YOU CANT LISTEN TO ON MOST CAR RADIOS because the splash is not filtered out as good as it is on this! (It sounds like it switches filters to cut off the adjacent station)


I havent ever seen another car radio like this!!!!

I found out which model it was yesterday and now i want to order it!! (Hopefully i can find where to!!)
