As much as I hate to admit it(Since I hate Sony Xplod car audio products wink.gif), I'm in the process of installing a fairly new Sony Xplod CD player in my car. I got the CD player for free in return for installing a gauge in my friend's Neon, and I have no manual for it. I spent the last hour searching through car audio forums, searching Google, and looking through Sony's absolutely useless website(One more reason why I hate Sony.) I simply cannot find the wire colors and what they do anywhere, and I'm wondering if someone can give them to me, so that I can get this CD player installed and get the car put back together.

Thanks for the info guys. I got the deck installed. Unfortunately, it's Sony Xplod and it sucks...it has no subwoofer control, and the display turns off for a second whenever you press a button.

And Pali_playa...I agree that it's more professional to use a harness. When I didn't know anything 2.5 years ago I had my friend install my cd player, and he just cut off my factory harnesses and spliced into the wires.

So today I went to a junkyard and cut a harness off of a wrecked Paseo, and then soldered that into my car. After I got it back to stock, I tested out my factory cd player, and it worked, so I installed the Sony deck. I think I'll go back to factory though until I can afford a new CD player...it's far better than the Sony Xplod deck that I got. I wish my Pioneer wouldn't have died...it survived a brutal seven or so years though. smile.gif
