Sorry to post here can’t post on the general discussion still

With the great wisdom of the people here I have learned two things. How to buy an RX-8 and do a search before you post. After getting a compression test I finally settle on an RX-8 I am very happy with and feel I got a great deal on it.

There were a list of issues and after fixing the high priority problems (cracked window, clutch switch, etc) I’m on to the
secondary stuff.

The car was well taken care of as much as the receipts and paperwork can confirm but that was all daddy. His college aged son however worried about 18” wheels, underbody light kit (which is actually really cool lol) and an aftermarket radio with subs.

He pulled the subs and explained when he “installed” the pioneer radio the ac and dashboard info display (don’t kno the actual name) quit working.

When I took the radio out everything was cut and I mean everything. Anything that connected through the old radio and originally had a plug is just wires now.

I research here about metra kits etc but none of the post or kits solve the problem of a nest of wires with no plugs.

I don’t mine doing the work myself and literally connect each wire to the wire or wires it goes but I need some help where to start.

I found some wire diagrams but they all cover from the radio to the amp / speakers. I need a complete diagram of each color wire connecting radio, ac/heat panel, and info panel. If possible one that is easy for a simple person to interpret.

ANY help would be appreciated!

 

See if you can find a wreck that you can cut out the plugs and pigtails. That's the only way you can expect it to work easily
