I finally got out the stock deck and was checking you the wires. Since it is an 89' there is no harness or i would go that rought. Anyways, theres no power wire or the usual wires so i need to know what to hook where. Anyone? Thanks!

Pioneers Wires

Ground
ACC
Battery constant
Illumination
Speaker wires


BMW

Two pin dimmer/memory
power antenna
ground/ignition (two wires, unsure which is ground and ignition)
Speaker wires ( what do i do with my extra wires since i have two and car has one per speaker)

Yea i saw that but the only info they have about install is for the 91+ and they only have pics for the old ones with no harness.

you have an old one with no harness, and a din install is a din install.

this is all the info you need to wire it that i could find in a couple of minutes web search, that and a quick read on wiring common ground. I'm sure someone who has done an early model can comment, but you should have placed this in the appropriate forum to begin with...

Power wire would be memory, and acc is ignition. Completely logical don't you think?
