You dont need to worry about the orange hsd plug, its not used.

the pink is for the screen and the white is for the usb, in the glove box. Just buy a new ones, do not bother with a reiapr they are like $50 eavh and are plug and play.

the blue fakra is GPS, just buy a new on and install it yourself, again $30..

The black fakra is am/fm, this will need a repair and as andy says, just crimp a new end and extend with a fakra extension, $30-$40

the bottom Pink fakra is satalite radio, again as above...

In the EU

You also have

Green fakra = Dab
Yellow fakra = dab

the first thing you will need to do is replace the cut cables and plugs for the HU part.

Buy a quadloc lead from a ebay or a salvage yard, also the MOST lead that runs to the rear and to the glvebox and then replace them.

this is pretty straight forward and if you were in the uk then i would help

$3k is a total ripoff mate, do the work yourself, it a 2day job max

You will also need to code the new unit you have bought to your car so that it works when you power it up (the nav wont work otherwise).

Its not that hard if you are handy with a soldering iron and should be cheap to fix. no more than a $200 to $300

Good luck
