There are wire harnesses for around $20 that clip into your existing wires, then it lays out what the colors mean and then it's a matter of matching colors from the harness to the new cd player. Personally i use wire nuts, you can get other wire connectors, i know some people prefer to solder the wires together. Just think twice before you cut any wires, the ones you need to join should be stripped for you. |
