Well Sid...

Radio wiring is pretty simple.  You've got wires for the power, the battery, the
ground, and left speaker positive, left speaker negative, right speaker positive
and right speaker negative.  sometimes there is one for the car lights also....
plus a big one for the antenna.

You can always make your own harness, or cut and splice wires.
