On most these days though, you can get a direct plug that will sit between the new harness and the old harness. You can either wire that directly to the new harness, or in most cases Crutchfield will sell you one already wired up.
You plug one end into your car wiring, and one end into the new radio wiring.

I remember the old days [emoji106] Getting an Alpine head unit was exciting stuff. My brother and I messed with so much wiring in my Talon, and it all turned out pretty good! He ended up getting a job at Circuit City doing car installs. [emoji28]
