I'm doing exactly the same. I've got some of the wiring sussed, but need help on the others. Here's what I have already.

btw - Did this for installing a parrot bluetooth car kit. SOC-85 (the same one for a Ford Fiesta 2002) adaptor is needed to connect the BT kit in.

Done

BTW - if you are replacing the standard radio with an MP3 unit you will probably need an ISO wiring adaptor harness. Then you don't need to worry about which wire is what - autoleads do one (and I have a diagram for that too).
