i'd suggest getting a mating harness connects to the OEM harness soit stays intact.

makes it easier if you ever decide to switch radios.

They're a lil more than $5. They're $18.49 and the best $20 you can spend when you install a radio. You can go to Wal-mart, but there no one there to tell you if you have the right harness or not.
