stock wiring colors

sorry to post an audio question in this forum...but i need this info asap and can't find it anywhere..

im almost done with my install, i ran all the wires, and now i got them leading to where the head unit should go

i've removed the stock bose head unit, and i guess i need to cut off the stock harness

here are the different colored wires
1 solid black
1 solid purple
1 solid yellow
1 solid white
1 solid gray
1 solid green
1 green with white stripe
1 solid red
1 red with white stripe
another red with white stripe (?? -- maybe it was a yellow stripe, couldn't tell.. it was dark...)
[total of 10 wires]

if anyone can tell me what each color means, that would be greatly apprecaited

what i plan to do is connect the following to the headunit

left front crossover's aftermarket wire to head unit
right front crossover's aftermarket wire to head unit
left rear crossover's aftermarket wire to head unit
right rear crossover's aftermarket wire to head unit
power supply stock wire to head unit
ground stock wire to head unit
ignitino stock wire to head unit

am i forgetting anything else??

That will not work. The line out from the Bose head unit is a balanced line level signal. It won't work like regular unbalanced RCA signals. There needs to be something on the other end to rebalanced the signal once its been manipulated by the head unit. You should tag into the harness with a PAC OEM-1 along with the ADD-NISS harness and you will have your RCA's without having to cut anything. Cutting a factory harness is the worst thing you can do, you WILL regret it later.

Email me if you want the PAC kit.
