I found the wiring for remote start and alarm but not for the stereo. I need the wires at the dash and at the factory locations if the are different. The vehicle has the stock equipment and does not have the Kicker upgrade. I will be replacing the doors and rear deck.

Make it easy on yourself and buy a harness adapter for swapping the head unit.......use the diagram above when you change out your speakers so you get the polarity right.

Sorry, buying a harness adaptor and running all new wires would be easier how? I'm not going to make them spend money when it isn't needed. If we were replacing the radio then absolutely, but they want to keep the stock radio. I tried to get them to get all new but this is what they can afford.

First, I didn't realize that you are keeping the stock head unit so nevermind about the harness adapter.

Second, who said anything about running new wire?

Third, what are you talking about spending more money than needed?

Ok, I guess we can do this like that. First, I asked for the wire colors at the dash and at the doors IF they were different because I wanted that information and if one would stop reading there I can see how one would have suggest the wire harness adaptor because why else would someone want that information. If you read the rest of the post, I said I was replacing the doors and the rear deck, I said nothing about the radio. Now last. Thank you for the information.
