Default Please help me wire (schematics included)

Well I did it -- removed the console and old radio, passenger seat, and passenger door panel. All of the corvette-essentials guides have been a huge help.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to properly wire my H/U to the factory harness. Can someone please assist me on what I need to connect where? I have a GM adaptor plug so I just need to get the 2 adapters correctly hooked up together.

My main questions are:
Pioneer Yellow -> C5 what?
Pioneer Red -> C5 what?
Pioneer Orange/White -> C5 what?

Thanks in advance for your help. This is the first car stereo install I've attempted as DYI

From what I recall, the Yellow would be for constant power or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) when the key is turned off. I personally didnt use it.

The Red would be for keyed power and for that I ran a wire to the pass side floorboard near the BCM? and spliced it into a yellow wire that is keyed power. I am looking for that pic...

The orange white would be for illumination and for that I spliced into a cream wire in the HVAC loom. Look for post eight in the follwoing thread, it's a great shot of the HVAC loom.

I highly recommend you use a multimeter and check voltages ie check the voltage on the cream wire when you hit the lights and the yellow wire near the BCM when you turn the key...

I'll return and post if I can find the pic of the BCM area ..

Good Luck !
