I am 99% sure that if you didn't have a CD-changer when the car was built, you won't have the cable.
It so not too hard to add a cable, but it does take time to fit - maybe 1 or two hours. The worst part of it is trying to remove the B-pillar trim without snapping the lugs (I failed).
However if you also don't have a cage, considering that the damn thing doesn't actually fit there without cutting a hole in the door, why not fit it in the glove box? Running a cable there will be a p-o-p.
I bought mine from Rally959 too. Apart from some issues with communication and the time it takes (it is shipped from the US, but at least they deal with customs), and the fact that my bill was in US dollars so ended up a few quid more than I agreed to on e-bay, the deal was OK, so I think you'd be too.
As far as I can tell you can only get the US models for this sort of price. They work with Euro cars, but there are some issues (occasional gaps in sound and display flicker). One of these days I might look into sorting it, but it doesn't bother me much.
