    My headunit went out of commission last week and I bought a replacement. I pulled the headunit out, but the wires are not the corresponding colors that are on the newer wiring harness. There are 8 yellow and black wires (assuming these are the speaker wires, which are not labeled on the right side). On the left side I have a brown wire, red, orange, white, cable. Does anyone know what these wires are exactly? There is also a plug in type connecter cable on the right side. The truck is a 12' Kenworth T700.

    Can you unplug the harness from the old radio and plug it into the new radio?

    For anyone else that may run into this problem. The wiring harness
    Metra 70-1784
    was a direct plug and play.
