[QUOTE="93dakota, post: 6181956, member: 602627"] I have seen the ribbon before. They are a Pain in the *** to deal with and so far i have yet to find an adapter cable. I just got a car with the ribbon and My plan for putting in a HU is making an adapter by taking the plug of the old HU and soldering my own wires to it. as for running new wires you will only need to run 2 wires to the fuse box (the one in the car). The first one is your constant, you can either run this to an already existing constant in the fuse box or if you have and open slot you can run a dedicated line. the other one is your ACC. you will need to figure out where you can take in to your AAC line so that you are taping it after the ignition switch. then you just need to run a ground and speaker wire.
