Nevermind, went out pissed off at Circuit City for selling me all the wrong hardware and figured it out.  You do not need a dash installation kit, just remove the tabs off the factory radio and install them on the sides of the new radio w/ supplied screws from new radio.  New radio will not use a bezel, factory stereo surround replaces it.

Function / Color / Stock Harness #

+12V - Battery / Orange / 8

Accy - Switch / Yellow / 1

GND / Black w/ Orange Stripe / 16

Illum + / Pink / 9

LF + / Yellow / 14

LF - / Black / 5

RF + / Blue / 11

RF - / Red / 4

RR + / Orange / 10

RR - / Green / 3

LR + / White / 15

LR - / Brown / 6

Speaker wire is twisted pair, as soon as you strip back a little of the black tape on the factory harness you will see the pairs.  Good luck!!

(Kia dashes are not very appreciative of 100 watt drop lights) :(
