Default Deck install on kit car....HELP!

Can anyone give me a diagram on how to wire up a deck? I'm installing it into a Lamborghini Mura kit car. Basicly I have all the wires, fuses etc, I just need to know what wire goes where (to battery etc). I checked install Dr. and they have great info on how to install a deck into a car that's already wired to a stock deck, but this one is really a shell with a battery, thats it!! haha, anyway, any help or tips would begreat, thanks guys. I promise to post up some pics when I'm done for those that are interested!!

That depends on what deck you have. Do you have a color code for the deck already? Usually, on a deck the constant on is yellow and that goes to the battery. Red is swiched 12v and that turns on with the accessories/ignition, black is ground/chasis. Blue would be to a power antenna/amp. 4 pairs would be for speakers.

Yeah, I know what all the wires are, I just need to know "how" to wire it up. Like how exactly does the wire attach to the battery and should I just crimp the wires and cover them in electrical tape or is there a better way? Basicly I'm looking for how to actually connect everything properly in a car that doesnt have any stock stuff in it to begin with.

Soldering is the best way. What kind of fuse box do you have in the car? You should be able to get both your acc. and constant power there, maybe even fused, for the ground, a ring term crimped and soldered to a wire and mounted with any bolt into ground, also around fuse box, and run with the acc. and constant powers, [inside some convoluted tubeing] to where ever the HU is going would be a clean way to do it, then solder and shrink tube to the HU harness, unless the HU harness is long enough to reach the fuse box by themselves, same for the speaker wires. 94

Is there any tutorial on how to wire it to the fuse panel as opposed to just running it to the battery?

I don't know of any, but if you can post pix of the fuse box, [front and rear] or a link where it is shown, I can tell you how. 94
