There’s a lot to change! Plus it’s a big big job due to your 03 vectra being half canbus and the CD70 is out of a full canbus vectra..

There is a lot to change, but it has been done several times.
There are a few How 2s on this, including a recent update that I did on the discussion thread.
I re-wrote the whole How 2, and re-inserted the images that were lost from the original thread.

The complexity is relative to what you fit.
A basic radio - CD30 / CD30 MP3, CDC40 without DAB.,
A CDC40 with DAB,
A CDC40 with DAB and UHP4.
A CD70 Navi with UHP4...
A combination of any of those plus steering wheel scrollers.
For more features, I recently advised someone to get one of those universal double din head-units.
Most still come with ISO connectors and require you to do only a little wiring tweaking.
Plenty of kit out there that is more modern, or has better features than any of the Vauxhall range.
Although I do like my CDC40, CID, DAB and UHP4 ready to be fitted to my Cavalier.

I probably should have said, that if wiring any "universal" aftermarket headunit with anything but a quadlock connection, then you could get an SOT078 (Omega-B) lead.
A bit wasteful, in so far as that you only need part of the lead, especially the three-part male ISO connector and the wires,
to which you can splice on your aftermarket wires.
Using one of these means that any wiring swaps or conversions can be done within the SOT lead, leaving the car body loom relatively untouched.
Fun is in the detail, such as steering wheel controls.
The half CAN guys probably know more about this than me.
Vectra specific radios with quadlock, usually come with a CAN signal decoder.
The universal ones tend to come with just one "steering wheel" wire.

Actually the bottom 2 bits of the halfcanbus connector is iso size... so any iso connector can be used for an aftermarket stereo... you'll just a special connector for the steeringwheel controls.. In my car i actually have a aftermarket unit that doesn't even have that so never bothered to look into it... maybe the SOT078 lead has that extra connector so it can be utilised if you've got an aftermarket radio with steering wheel controls, and even than you have to check if it is the buttons or the scroller type because some radio's with the one wire control will not work right with the scroller controls (and that is why i didn't bother to get a radio that has support for steeringwheel controls)
If it is half-CAN, then it should be three buttons on each steering wheel arm.
Not scrollers.
But yes, some radios want a speed sensor wire or reverse gear sensor wire.
Wires found in the 3rd long block.
But as said, using the 078 plug means you are not hacking your car loom.
I have actually seen half canbus steering wheels with scrollers, and both Tech2 and (sl)op-com/(f)vaux-com allow you to activate the scrollers and i have seen them work without a problem. So yes all cars with the buttons are deffo half canbus, but you can't be sure with the 04/05 models that have the scrollers... but the connector is a dead give away (and so is the OEM radio by the way)
if connector is quadlock than you deffo have a full canbus setup... but if it is blue and consists of 3 blocks connected together it is half canbus.
