there are something like 5 hook ups to the stock radio
the antenna, a 6 or 8 pin adapter, a 1 pin adapter, a 3 pin adapter, and a black circular adapter

the one pin adapter is constant

the 3 pin adapter has switched power, illumination power, and power for the power antenna

the circular adapter i believe goes to the center console joystick

the 6 or 8 adapter is for the speakers

the amps are connected by the one of the bottom 2 wires im not sure which one

I have a problem though, the connectors, most of them at least have been cut, I need to know which colors they are, my father of course says "touch them to the frame if a fuse blows it is right. he likes the american cars that work better with some physical abuse (hit the dash to turn on the stereo) very strange to me
