i need the wiring harness for the stock cd player i want to put back in my stock radio but lost all wiring but a motorcycle hit my truckbed on my 2000 f150 so i guess the radio is not so important right now

Thanks, your post helped me a lot. I’m an engine guy and HATE doing stereo installs!

Sorry, I couldn’t find a decent wiring diagram to tell me what they were. When I do I’ll post up the answer.

Thanx for this tutorial, good job! I am wondering what the second factory plug in the truck is for? There are quite a few wires in it!

Sorry if that’s confusing. I was referring to 7th page of the entire PDF. I believe the page has a title “Radio Wire & Color Code Information Page 3 of 3″
