DON'T cut the factory wiring harness.  Use a wiring harness adapter from Metra or Scosche.

Listen to DYohn.  If you cut the wires you are making a hell of a lot of extra work.  Find a wiring harness.  Most online stores have them for sale.  You'll be way happier in the long run.

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.
