I am looking at installing a system in my car and I bougt an alpine head unit for my car. They do not make an aftermarket wiring harness for my headunit. I have checked all around and they do not exist. The OEM radio was a delco unit and it plugged into 2 different connectors. What I am wondering is is where do the speaker wires run into so I can splice into them and hook the speaker wires up into my CD player?

I LOOKED ALL THRU COMPONENT LOCATIONS---I DO NOT SEE ANYTHING RELATED.

MAYBE A CALL TO AN AUTO SALVAGE YARD COULD SHED LIGHT ON THE LOCATION? IF ONE IS IN THE YARD, THIS MIGHT REVEAL HOW TO GET TO IT EZily.

SORRY THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN MUCH HELP

I pulled my glove box out and saw two silver boxes one was a PCM and the other I believe was the receiver. If its not there where else could it be or do you know who I could talk to and see if they know where it's at

That's the thing I didn't find that receiver and it's hard to trace wires without ripping stuff apart. But also is that receiver behind the right power control mirror located by the climate control?
