try a radio shop that either sells radios and accessories or repairs radios. you should be able to get an adapter that goes between the two so you don`t need to cut and splice.
It sounds like there is a specific wiring harness required for your Sun Fire.
First place I would start is with the compatibility of the after market stereo. Did the stereo manufacturer provide an application list with the stereo.... that provides the makes and models of vehicles it will work in?
If your stereo purchase is new, can you exchange it for a unit that is compatible with your car, including the necessary and correct wiring harness?
If not....then you will need to purchase the harness that has been identified as correct for your vehicle.
Go to your local auto store and get the Hanes auto manual for this care and they should have a wiring schematic for you to follow also you can look your new stereo up on the web and find out what each colored wire goes to what!!! Good luck
When I replace a stereo, I buy the harness which is available on Ebay.com or places like Best Buy. All of the wires are labeled and color coded which makes it easier to connect with the wire nuts to any aftermarket stereo that fits in your dash.
buy a wiring harness, they are easy to install and will tell you exactly what wires to connect where. while you're at the store buy a crimp set, 100 times better then using electric tape and easier then soldering.
This is a Ford factory unit?
