uh, actually there slick, it makes perfect sense, read it one more with me.

I have an adapter already. I want to know the wiring scheme for the accord because i no longer have the adapter paperwork and i don't know which wire is which. . .the wire that goes in one side (the accord harness) is the same that comes out the other (the adapter). I'm cutting the adapter from the old headunit and using it with the new.

furthermore, as an electrical engineering student, i know very well that a wire's color does not always indicate its function, its voltage, or how much current it will carry. Particularly in this case where the adapter is several years old and may not match whatever convention you deem "normal".

So if its all the same to you, i'll get the wiring scheme i need and not fry my new 400 dollar headunit.
