Default aftermarket radio

alright, its aout that time that i need to start trying to put my new radio in, my question is, does anyone make a harness to work with my cars existing harness. i have a whole painless setup that im almost done installing, i dont remember if it used stock radio connectors or not. or is there anyway to get a late model mustang harness to work with the radio and just splice in the painless kit. that would be a good idea. get a stock fox wire harness and remove the stock classic one and splice in the new one and then get your radio and get the connector harness for whatever year fox you took it from.

Well i know you just want a plug in harness if you can find one go for it but if you have some wire crimpers you can make it look decent
