you have the stock wiring harness in place still? If so go to Auto Zone or any where really and buy the wiring harness adapter for a aftermarket radio. Get it online at www.sonicelectronix.com or www.crutchfield.com that way you can then get any aftermarket radio that you want.

Try best buy. They have wire connector adapters. You just need to look up the color codes for your wiring to do the install.

OK- so i did some more investigating--- my radio is NOT stock, and im not sure when it is from exactly, but the name of it is "pioneer ke-2303qr supertuner"

heres a picture of the plug in the back of the radio itself

shoot me a picture of the wires you have for the radio area, I am sure I can help you. I used to do this stuff in my sleep,

i never did figure out when that old radio was from, BUT, i got a really good newer model CD PLAYER (i know! what an upgrade!!). took it home, tore out the old radio, and wired the new one in (process of elimination takes forever... especially if its not just the speaker wires you need to worry about)

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN--- LOOK AT THE CARS INNER WIRING BEFORE BUYING IT FROM SOMEONE! (never know when you might find out that all the stock wiring has been replaced with all one color wiring..... throughout the whole car........)


Thanks for all the help you guys gave me!

Oh wow - one color wiring would be a ***** to figure out! Congrats on the upgrade, though!
