I am putting an aftermarket CD/radio player in my car and I have 2 wiring harnesses from the stock radio each with a plug and need to know what each wire is so I can re-wire.
Thanks in advance

If the factory plugs are still intact I highly recommend you use a wiring harness such as the Metra 70-7550 like Sebastian018 mentioned, instead of hardwiring or cutting off the factory plugs. It will save you a lot of time and hassle. And it keeps you from having to mess up your factory wiring.
