84 Firebird Radio Wiring (Need Help)
I have a 84 firebird. The old owner chopped the old wiring harness and now i am installing a new one. I need to find out which wires coming from the car are which. Can anyone help with color coding and such?
Also i can get power to the new radio it makes the turning on buzz most after market radios do. But i can't get it to illuminate or show anything on the screen.

and to add some more visuals to that good reply:

I rewired my 87 to the later style so I could reuse a factory deck I had from my old GTP. Much easier to find a stock CD deck in the newer style harness than the old one.
