My Mach 460 Cd player decided to steal one of my cds so i decided to upgrade to a nice pioneer7700MP headunit. After buying the typical schoche wiring harness i tried to install it and found that only the power and ground type connection hooked up but the other connection for the speaker wires didnt. I figured thats because of the mach 460. So my dumb frustrated self decides to cut the weird connections that went into the stock headunit in order to see if i could find the speaker connections. Man i was definetly wrong. They are all sorts of wierd colors. So i tried looking up the wiring diagram for the mach 460 and thought i could wire it but when i hooked up the speaker wires to it they didnt play at all. Short of re-wiring the whole system, is there any way i can hook up the headunit to the rest of the speakers/amps??

Sorry for the novel guys........Thanks in advance.
