hey all, just wondering if anyone out there has the wire color codes for a 2008 dodge caliber se(basic model/no power)? it has just the basic standard 4 speaker system and not the higher end amplified. basically wanting the stereo install info....I see in the search it only shows up to 2007 caliber, maybe its all the same. I put a after market stereo in with just a basic wire harness and it wont shut off with the ignition, just stays on until I pop the faceplate or manually push the power button. im thinking maybe this has the can-bus system. I know it had the rap feature with the factory radio and stayed on until a door was opened. if I need a special adapter, anyone know what it would be? thanks in advance for the help.

Hi
I am in New Zealand and Have a 2011 Caliber- it appears the colour codes are the same as 08 and I am trying to install a reversing camera. Where can I locate the reverse lamp wire, when you say drivers Kickspace can you please explain and is this reversed for RHD vehicle.
Sorry for daft question but I really dont want to run a l\cable all the way from reverse light to console to trigger the screen.
Cheers
Mike

The kick panel is the panel just in front of the door between the carpet and the dashboard.
My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
