I just went out to best buy and got an Aiwa cd player, i beleive its the cdc-x217. Anyways i took out the stock tape player and I noticed the power and speaker supply that plugs into the unit was different: stock: |:::::::| Aiwa: |::::| |::::| or something to that effect. So i figured no big deal just do a little bit of matching up wires. Well Acura didnt supply a color coded map or doesnt have any type logical coding. I played around with the wiring and got the units security to blink and it accepts the cd and spits it out when i hit eject BUT the faceplate does nothing!! help me please.

Yah, AIWA only has one plug. Did you hack the factory harness or did you buy the aftermarket harness? If you cut it, get out the old multimeter or ( test light) and find your power/switched/grounds. Then get a battery to "spark" your speakers. Wala....
In most cases I can hard wire a car in almost the time it takes to wire a harness.
