Locate a wire that has permanent 12v.
Locate a wire that has accessory switched 12v.
Make an earth wire to connect to dash frame.
Connect these to the corresponding headunit harness wires and headunit will run.

pull off the heater knobs, and carefully lever off the heater control bezel with a flat blade screwdriver. There is a pair of screw behind it. Those are the hard to find screws. The rest of the screws to remove the dash bezel should be easy to find with a bit of perseverence.
You may also need to remove the steering wheel, and the steering column shroud.

Push and twist the knob. Then undo the nut behind it.
