Hello looking for advice, Just bought this stereo recently been stressed out about connecting the wires together because I cant find a single website telling me the color codes for each of my stereo cables in my car. It's a 2009 Hyundai Accent Hatchback. I will be surprised if anyone could actually find this.

>he didn't buy from crutchfield
they include wiring harness adapters for free or a small fee with every stereo purchase.
Just test them yourself, after you find the 12v ignition, 12v always on, and ground then you should be left with paired wires for each speaker, which are normally the same color, one with a line or dot and one without.

why aren't you using a wiring harness?
>>14676288
How would I go at testing that?
>>14676279
If you cut your factory harness, you're a fuck. You're supposed to get a harness adapter to prevent this from happening and fucking it up.

I've been to literally 6 shops today looking for the wiring harness and none of them have it they have every fucking one for every other car but not the one I need and I don't wanna order them cause I'm an impatient prick and I want it done now.

they stopped including them for free, but I agree for people that shouldn't be trying to install a stereo, crutchfield is their best option
Buy the harness, it's not worth the frustration of tracing wires.
Ive also got a question, I blew my infinity reference 12, that was in a 1.5 cf sealed enclosure, so I got a power acoustik gothic 2500 and installed it face down in the box. Will this hurt it? And it smells like it's burning.

>colored wires are scary!
If you can't deal with wiring up a radio without an adapter you aren't going to be able to do anything with your car anyway, and shouldn't be posting on /o/
