Im trying to hook up my Alpine CDA-9886 In my 2008 Honda Accord, there seems to be no wiring harness available for my car yet. I found the dash kit but no harness. Several stores said the 70-1722 from Metra (honda 2006-up) would work but I took the factory stereo out and the is like 6 harnesses connected to the back of the stereo.

Anybody try to hook up a stereo in a 2008 accord yet? Is there a way to bypass?

Were did you find the wiring diagram for the colors, well there is a factory amp, its the 7 speaker system, so what about the 7th speaker. Plus I know u will need the Antenna adapter

I found it on this site ther is a link that says vehicle wiring and it has any car or just google it. But the other two you should able to figure out it should be two sets of one color of wire with a black or white strip on one of them here's the link below
