Default need help with car audio

alright so i got this car a while back and i noticed that the wires were cut for some reason and there was no radio in the car. so im planning on putting in just an old pioneer head because it's better than nothing. this is what it looks like :



anyone know what to do? crx's arent easy to find around here and most of the 88-91 civics at the junk yards dont have wire harnesses. maybe someone can show me how to hardwire it to a pioneer deck? im not sure on the model # but i can get back to you with that.thanks :D

Google it dawg. I'm pretty sure that the colors will be similar on both harnesses.

Wrong.

The yellow wire is the constant power, the red is the remote on, the black is ground, and the striped ones are your speakers,
go off the wiring diagram on the back of your deck, it should be easy from there.

The easiest way to figure your speakers is to look in the speaker holes to find out what colors go to what side, left, right, etc...
good luck.

Grab a double a battery and two wires, touch one wire to the top and one to the bottom. You will hear a speaker tapping when you touch the positive and negative for that speaker. Have some masking tape and label them for next time.

Hope that helps
