    My son needs to know how to wire a CD player. Could someone tell me
    the color scheme?

    Thanks!

  2. You can always go with good old trial and error :).. Figure out your
    constant power, your ground and your switched power (a voltameeter will
    tell you that) or a 12V light bulb and assume that black is ground :).
    then just use one speaker conection from the CD player and figure out
    what speaker is what :)... Or.. maybe someone else acctually knows... I
    don't but I always do the trial and error method.. its usually faster
    than finding the book or waiting for someone to tell me the correct
    wiring and have it be wrong :)

    Does he wish to replace the current in-dash unit, and use the use the
    existing speakers?

    The easiest way, is to purchase an adapter kit. This allows the new
    stereo to utilize the existing connectors. I have found the kits at
    Radio Shack and other retailers that sell car stereos. I paid about $9
    for the last one that I bought.

    Most Chrysler products from the mid-1980's until 2000, used the same
    wiring setup.
