if you have the wiring harness you just match the colors.

search through this section and you'll find a good post or two on the wire colours. blue/red I think it is

Just use a test light.

be careful using a test light. Poking the wrong wire can set off your airbag. (not on your stereo of course, but wires under your dash in general. I know this may not relate to the question, but its benificial.

the best thing i would suggest is go to any car stereo place and buy a wiring harness, this would be good because its easier and less chance of messing up and crossing the wrong wires and also because you will be able to still use it if you change decks, this is honestly the best thing to buy, and i just saw that your from hamilton, go over to HI-FI PLUS, and talk to mike, awesome guy to deal with, email me before you go over if you do, peace peace[ December 04, 2002: Message edited by: airjordon_09 ]

here you go Here's what I get from the online manual wiring diagram pg Z-102 Blue/red - battery Blue/black - Ignition Black - ground Red - deck lighting (avoid not needed) Red/black - deck lighting (avoid not needed) blue/orange - front left - Violet - front left + white - front right - Blue/white - front right + Pink - rear left - grey/black - rear left + light green/red - rear right - light green/black - rear right +the red and red/black wire are part of the interior lighting dimmer circuit for the instrumentation lights. for an aftermarket radio they are not needed unless the unit has provision for this but most don't.
