I'm not so sure what you mean by headunit or "hardwired FM-Modulator type" but the nokia kit has a connection to the back of the radio. They need to know the model of your radio/CD to get the right parts. This then plugs into a black box which is behind the dashboard. from the dash comes another 2 wires that are tied as one which goes into the cradle. The cradle is changeable in the event of Nokia changing the interface so it is future proofed to some degree.

When you get a call it basically cuts the power to the radio and uses the car's speakers to amplify the sound. I assume there is an amp in the black box.

Does that answer your question?
