Call a Best Buy. Ask them VERY NICELY for a diagram and they might give it to you. More store does sometimes.

Thanks...that helped alot....anyone happen to have pics of the ignition harness and other wire locations...I'm always worried im gonna hook up a wrong wire somewhere LOL thanks
 
i dont have any pics because of the pc that im on, but youll be ok, heres my question for you. how are you hooking it up? solder? { i hope} DO NOT use scotch locks, they do not work well with a unit that draws that much power. i only use scotch locks for things like tapping an ecu or a line out converter, something small in power. before you do anything just look at all the wires, cut the tape off the harness if you have too, itll make the wires easier to spread apart and identify.
 
Yea I went ealier today to Idiotzone and picked up a soldering iron for like 6 bux.....It will be my first time using one...any tips??...I don't think it will be to hard I just wanna make sure I'm on the right track before I start tearing it apart
 
did you get a pencil style one or a gun style one? youll want a gun style one, but you can get away with a pencil soldergun. tips? try it out a lil bit, get yourself a few pieces of wire and strip them back. practice getting the solder to melt right onto the wire instead on the tip of the iron. do not let the tip of the gun stay on the wire for too long, you dont want to burn the wire, just heat it up enough for the colder to have something to stick too. if you cant hold the entire roll of sauder at first while your soldering, cut yourself off foot ong pieces to use, {itll ake the under dash wook easier if youve neevr doen it before}
