Here is pleubner's writeup (into a MY2000 so not 100% comparable):

P/N is correct. Very easy to fit, just need the right tools and parts.
For MY2004, you will need:
A163 540 78 10 Wiring harness adaptor
A163 820 15 75 GPS antenna
Radio removal tools
plus a saw to remove the plastic lugs at the rear of the double DIN slot. I used a (power) reciprocating saw, but if you want to be more gentle you could use a handsaw.
Including sawing, the whole job can take less than 1/2 hr.
I also had to visit my dealer to have it configured with Star Diagnosis. I was gouged AU$300 for the privilege, as the tech decided to pop out the unit (for no reason, as I had wired it correctly) so he could charge me for "R&I Comand".
