CIC to NBT Retrofit Part Check

Hi Guys,

I'm planning on replacing my CIC with NBT. I'm getting the head unit and the screen from a nearby junk yard. I'm planning on keeping my current controller. From what I've read since I have a combox, I will have to run wires to the trunk. Or as an alternative, I can replace all the wiring and just hook them up behind the head unit and code out the combox.

So far I'm thinking I will need the following. I was wondering if you guys could confirm that I have the correct parts and that I'm not missing anything.

Bluetooth Antenna:

Mic:

One thing I'm not clear about though, for Satellite radio, I'm assuming I can reuse my current antenna since I'm guessing it runs to the roof and not to the combox?

Also, only good info I found on how to power the combox is from this thread, in which they mention to tap a black wire to the fuse box. Is this still the best way to power the combox?

Did you end up getting these parts? I'm trying to find the part numbers for the BT antenna cable and the two USB cables (center console and glovebox), but the part you linked to above is the CID cable 3 times.

Thanks!
