SOURCE: installing after market stereo
Dave,
You will need to go buy a wiring harness adapter from your local Walmart (usually cheapest there) or Local Electronics place (ie Best Buy). The wire harness that goes out from the radio goes into the Adapter and the adapter plugs into the car harnesses. Also these Adapters come with the wiring diagrams for your vehicle. They typically run 10 - 15 bucks depending on where you get them. Thanks for using FixYa!
Sincerely,
JC
SOURCE: trying to figure out if
yes, the special harness is to convert the connection from your truck to fit the connection on the radio. the other option is to cut the harness off the truck a manualy connect all the wires. but trust me from experance. its worth the 20-25 dollars for the harness to save about an hour on the time to install it plus the hassle. not to mention is more of a profesinoal job and alot easier. you can get this part at any circuit city or best buy in the radio installation dept.

havent a clue without looking at it but this is one of them things best left alone as i have had similar before where it runs through radio,including the alarm and the factory immobiliser cut in.just loop from another circuit to make the lights work

Go to this site...very helpful. You have to run your own power wire to power the aftermarket radio. I just finished an install 20 minutes ago.
