I connected the power harness that comes from the pioneer to the harness from the scosche. From all the pictures I've looked at it looks like there are only 4 stock connectors into the back of the stock radio. 2 of them plug into the scosche harness, one is the XM, and the other is the AM/FM antenna. Soooooooo, where do I plug in the RCA connectors from the other pioneer harness? (Pictured in an earlier post) Do I just not use them? In the pioneer installation manual it says that they are used for an aftermarket amp, which I don't have?? HELP!!! Thanks for all yalls help!
You got me lost with the 4 connectors on the stock radio. Do not worry about the stock radio the wiring and connectors are different.
The white and white/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked left front.
The gray and gray/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked right front
The green and green/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked left rear
The violet and violet/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked right rear
You do not connect any speakers on the cord with the red, black, yellow wires. Follow the instructions for the rest of the wiring. they are only 7 or wires for you to connect on the power cord. After you got that done then it just connecting very thing to radio and scosche kit.

Okay, the pioneer head unit came with 2 harnesses, one with a bunch of rca connectors, and the other just has a bunch of wires. In the installation guide it says to connect the colored wires from the second harness to the scosche harness. They match color for color. My question is whats the other harness for? (the one with the rca connectors) what am i supposed to connect to it?

From the scosche wiring you connect this way.


The white and white/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked left front.
The gray and gray/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked right front
The green and green/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked left rear
The violet and violet/black wires connect to the rca plugs that are marked right rear
You do not use the wires from the pioneer unit that match the scosche wire. they are not needed. If you use them any way you could say good by to the ba amp and you will not have any sound period.

Alrighty, I've got everything wired up, just waiting on my car to get home then ill install and post pics. The install should take less than 30 min if everything goes as planned. I've gotta switch the backup camera from the mirror to the radio, and change my mirror back, so ill have a mirror and harness for sale soon. Hopefully I get my car back soon because Im going out of town again next week and I wanna get this done!
