Hey VDub,

I never found a wiring harness manufactured to mate this perfectly. I had to do it the hard way - solder & crimp flat plugs onto the end of the corresponding power, antenna, etc. wires from the aftermarket unit, to plug into the car's original wiring harness. I bought a 'variety pack' of connectors from Home Depot. I didn't pay this much for the kit but this gives you an idea: Gardner Bender 247-Piece Terminal and Connector Kit-TK-500 - The Home Depot

I taped off each wire with electrical tape after plugging into the car harness. Not necessarily pretty or tidy, and I'm sure a professional installer would have done a better job, but I put my aftermarket head unit in close to a year ago now and it's held up. My goal was not to disturb the car's original harness so that if ever needed again, I could disconnect everything easily.
