Installing a CD Player

Hey,
I just bought a new CD player for my Corolla, and obviously the wires don't line up. Does anyone know how the heck I'm supposed to connect the wires that come out the back of the CD player to the wires that stick out of where the old Stereo used to be?

YOu should be able to go to a good auto parts store and find a wiring harness to fit the connectors. A good harness should have instructions, but its really just lining up and matching colors.

Thank you very much, there were crazy numbers of wires that didn't line up and all sorts of colors, i'll just go buy the thing you mentioned.

Oh, sometimes the harness you buy might not have a ground connector. If thats the case, it might work out better, because you can then ground the radio directly to the chassis.
