This helps greatly but I'm really curious as to what the solid BROWN wire is for. I guess I really only need to get constant and switched power to it to get it to work

Once again Allpar proves its a fantastic resource. Every question I've posted has been answered within a day.

Thanks again Imperial!!!!

Actually a Brown wire is used for the LR+ speaker, but that didn't make sense to me on a 2 door speaker Miser.
Is the Brown wire in the vehicle harness or may someone have added it or is it for something other than the radio? Maybe see if it is a power or ground?
This is the website I used for the wire color info:
