depending on the compatibility of the harness (it might not be right), you can hack up the harness and solder the cables to the right places using diagrams and cable markers.  I suggest shrink tubing the soldered joints as well, just remember to put the shrink tubing on first.

unclealp your going to have to tell us more information about your car. Do you have a 2 or 4 door car, does it have a MACH audio system, does it have a Premium sound system or does it have neither? Then we can tell you if you purchased the right wiring harness and how to install your alpine stereo.
