why don't you just buy a wiring harness? It plugs straight into the stock plug, then all you have to do is butt connect from the radio to the pigtail side of the harness. or you could spend about $50 at circuit city, they have harness that go from stock plugs to a universal plug, then from the universal plug to your stereo harness. Saves a shitload of time.

i agree with jumbo, if u dont already know the wires, ur gonna cause more headache and problems then just buying a damn harness, plus its like half the time to sit there and screw with the damn wires....

buying a harness is the way to go any time you can elimanate splicesits always better plus if you decide to go back to stock you can just plug the stock radio back in
