Unfortunately, their wiring harnesses don't seem to match mine. Is it possible to determine the function of each power/control wire?
My personal opinion, quoted from the usual place...
If you decide to install it yourself, the most important thing to remember is to get a proper installation kit from a stereo shop.
Installation kits usually consist of a wiring harness adapter (so you don't have to cut into the car's wiring and you don't have to guess at which wires to connect), and a set of dash mounting brackets and/or trim pieces (so that the stereo screws nicely into the dash without problems).
These kits can be found or ordered from any car stereo installation shop, or from mail-order companies such as Crutchfield.
Whatever you do, do not guess at the wiring of your car. You could blow fuses (or worse, fry your car's electronics) by trying to hook up 12 volt power to the wrong wire. You should always use the wiring harness adapter from the installation kit.

Crutchfield and local audio installers won't touch the thing.
There's gotta be SOMEBODY who can help...
