I bought the metro 70-1761 harness and a line out converter, but I'm not being able to figure out from what's been posted already how to rewire the harness, and why it has to be rewired, as well as how to connect everything together. Can someone please help break it down a little bit more?

Edit to the edit: So I'm starting to figure this all out and here's the question. If I hook the metra 70-1761 to the oem harness and wire it to the configuration in the OP, and connect in the line out converter to the signal wires, then connect the wires to the metro 71-1761 and plug that into the amp, will that allow me to have door speakers and add a sub?

Yes, it is not necessary to re-color the pins, but it helps keep functions straight without a cheat sheet, wire the 70-1761 to the 71-1761 to the connections go straight across. This will let you retain the stock amps functions. You could test it with the straight across and no LOC at this point to be sure it works. then wire the LOC tapped to the front left and right signals (white and gray IF you repin) if you have a stereo LOC (many are). After that run your RCAs and power to your sub amp, wire up your sub, test again for functionality, clean up your work, and enjoy


Hope that helps.
