installing pioneer 8600 with bose help

i finally bought a new head unit after having way too many problems with the bose.
i got the deh-p8600mp, not from crutchfield ofcourse
ive been looking all over the site on how to install it and i am still a little unsure
which wire adapter do i exactly need to replace the stock bose head unit with the pioneer?
i am not planning on adding amps, speakers, or subs any time soon.
from the reading i did, i think i have the following options:

1. Scosche OEM Amplifier Adapter
2. PAC OEM-2
3. ROEM-NIS2

are these my only options and which one do you recommend i should get?
also i am getting a sirius receiver, but i dont think that affects what adapter i need; please correct me if i'm wrong.

any help is appreciated!

I forget which one I am using with my Pioneer but some lady at Crutchfield knew exactly what I needed when I called to order it. Just call them up and ask them which adapter you need.

Just going from what I remembered it looking like, I am using the first one.

I'm about to put the same hu in my car. Do you like it? Easy to use? Does that built in microphone thing work well?

This is the microphone

I'm trying to install it this weekend. Did you do yours yourself? because I looked at the wiring and it wasn't like the last one I did.

is the mic only used for Auto EQ?
btw, go the pioneer website and you can download more backgrounds, visuals, and movies onto the headunit; unfortunately you can only add one movie and visual at a time.

Are you talking about the OEL Screensaver Studio? if so I already downloaded that. I've created a few things already. Or can I actually download another movie like the race car on the 9600?
