I'm doing a swap from my stock stereo to an aftermarket one, but I'm not sure what wires are for what. I can't find a wire diagram for the wires, and there isn't much info in either radio or car manual, and on the internet. Does anyone know where I could find one, or perhaps tell me what wire color goes to what. I checked to make sure this isn't a repost, but sorry if it is. Thank you very much.

I took out the player, luckily there was a diagram on the player. I wrote each wires use, but it seems not to match. The speaker ones seem to match, whether they are backwards or not I don't know yet, but they are pretty much grouped, my problems is 2 of the slots were empty and 4 were used,

The 4 that have a wire are
Power Antenna, Accessory, Tel Mute, Battery.

The 2 that don't have wire are
Illumi and Ground.

Ground is opposite side of Tel Mute, and Illumi is opposite of Power Antenna

I need a Ground so reviewing it, I believe the wires are backwards. I don't have a Power Antenna so that shouldn't have a wire. I don't even know what Tel Mute is, and Illumi I would assume is Illumination, Whether I need it or not I don't know.

Just as a reference, I'll put down what I have.

rear right +red/green - brown/black
rear left +blue/green - grey/black
front right +red/yellow -brown/white
front left +blue/yellow - grey/white
power antenna red/black
accessory white/blue
tel mute black
illumi unused
battery yellow/red
ground unused

why dont you spend the extra 15 bucks and buy the harness that plugs into your stock harness instead of hacking at your car. And the ground wire is used. :roll:
have you cut the plug off already
