Power/Antenna Adapter Help

[WiscoBadgers]

First off i would just like to say hey to everyone on this site, this is my first post. Anyways, i bought an aftermarket deck to replace my stock deck. I bought a wire harness but now im finding out neither the antenna or my power (im assuming the larger wire is the power source) fit into the slot. I was at walmart today and saw an antenna adapater but no power adapter. The antenna adapater looked like it branched off a few times though so im wondering if it will make both the antenna and power jacks fit?

Also, this doesnt have a lot to do with the topic but i cant find the manuel for my deck to save my life. I was just wondering if the color of the wires were somewhat universal and it would be save to assume that purple matches up with purple and green with a black stripe matches up with green with a black strip and so forth. Or is every one different? I know red/yellow are generally the power, and blue is usually the antenna, but what about the others?

Thanks for any help in advanced. Usually i would take my car to a specialty shop for something like this but for a two to four hour job they charge a fortune.

well you can use the harness for all the wires that match up and the ones that don't you can just splice into em and do it the old fashioned way. I'd say don't assume anything, most decent companies have pdfs of their product manuals online get the right colors somehow and then hook everything up right
