Help with radio installation!!
Get a wiring diagram and figure out what wires are what. It's not that hard really and you shoul dhave no problems doing it. We're only talking 8 wires total for the speakers, two positive / hot wires for power, and one ground. Hell, you can even run your own if you want. Wiring a stereo is really simple... hard to screw it up.
If you have speakers and cant tell which terminal is positive and which is negative, you can always do teh battery trick with a AA or AAA battery (or something similar)

i should probably post a picture... i have installed radios before its just all the harnesses i find end up not fitting 1 on the wires so... no connection...
there is also a short on the inside lights because i replaced the fuse lke 2 times and it blew it right away...

That shouldn't be a problem if you don't mind doing a little extra work and have or can get a wiring diagram. Hell, if you're patient enough you can even figure out which wire is which on your own. A harness isn't necessary...it just makes it easier to install and easier to uninstall.
If you realyl can't find a harness, then screw it and start wiring it by hand.
