1.5.8 is useless if u dont have a powered antena

2 is ur turn on and off with car.
3. is constant power to keep ur time. and eq saved
4. is obviously ground witch u need
7
6. if ur car is equiped with a dimmer wire on the harness ( orange ) put it on its better than having an overly bright deck in the night
7 well its illumination..

just connect all the wires on the deck to the matching colors on the car harness that u hopefully bought

Yeah it should say in the manual that is included with your deck. And sometimes it says on top of the deck .

Canadian Tire or Walmart will have them cheapest if you can find the model for your car, otherwise try board vendor Selective Sound
