well, i am sure it has. but good luck searching for it...

a question first. does your car still have the original factory plug? if so DO NOT hack it out. just go to your local car stereo store and get an adapter harness. they can give you one that plugs intop your new deck and the factory plug or give you one with bare wires that attaches to your factory harness that you can match up to your new decks harness.

i would do this for a few reasons.
1. make sit easy to put the factory deck back in should you ever sell the car, or deside to "restore" it or somthing.
2. makes upgrading to an even batter deck down the road easy, as you just go buy another adapter harness
3. looks more professional to buyers shoul;d you ever sell the car.
4. you will not have to deal with "shrinking harness syndrom". that is waht you call it when your wire harness gets shorter and shorter every time you install a new deck, due to all the cutting...
5. they are less then 10$. for goodness sake just go get one.

if however you no longer have the original harness, or allready hacked it out, the wire diagrams can be found in the factory service manual, and on this site somewhere... i happened to have saved an image of the diagram, i'll just upoad it here...
