I bought this stereo the other day and it came today, and im very unsure how to fit it as its not as easy as just plugging it in because of how old the car is

need some help/advice, I understand where the power cable goes but unsure on other wires..

If its the thick red and black wires they are your amp leads. Looks like you have two amps. If you only have one amp lead input in your stereo you can get a dropper which changes speaker cables into to amp (jack plugs) leads allowing more then one phono lead lead input into your stereo.

I eventually got it on, found it after trying numerous of ways that my fuse had blown... haha
the whole stereo wiring is just rubbish and nothing works so im going to start again whilst I have the chance, tidy up the dash wiring abit also

Oh I see you had no power. Your better off buying a new iso lead set and renewing that way
