I used that wiring color code chart when I installed a new CD player last
year.  I also bought a honda audio harness connector and soldered the car
side into the van.  then I used the other side to create a harness adapter
to the plug on the back of the CD unit.  The Westies have a common rear
negative wire for the two rear speakers, and not fixing it may lead to a
very short life for modern CD/stereo units.  It is possible to run new
wiring following the old routing, which requires removing passenger side
trim above the doors and fishing down the A pillar.

The new unit makes great tunes, for sure.  But because my Westy is a diesel,
I can't really hear it.
