That's it but make sure to put an in-line fuse on the 2 live's going to the radio.

I always pull the live and switched feeds from the standard fuse box, simples......

second that: theres a couple of spare terminals there usually and its a lot easier to reach than the ignition. IIRC the "switched" is colour white.
