Metra should have a harness for this car. The tuner is at the antenna sidewall in the trunk.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

Uh, yeah. Buy the harness or waste alot of time and effort rewiring the car and antenna. Everything you need is in the trunk.
You need this, and if you want the radio in the stock location,
and this..

Colour Code-------------
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it.

i just pulled out the stock radio again and those colors do not match.i have a 99'taurus with the digital climate control.
That is because you have an amplifier in the trunk. Your antenna is also in the trunk. You should buy the wiring harness for this car if you are putting in a radio.
