Can someone confirm wire colors on '08?

It's for an '08 Expy, but I'm sure it's probably the same on the F150...

I am using an SNI-1 from PAC for a Singnal/Line Out Converter... And I didn't write down what they were on the '06 Screw

I'm needing the factory side colors for:

remote turn on
rear left +/-
rear right +/-

I needs the subbage...

Thanks a million!!! YOU ROCK -------NOTE to anyone looking in: THESE COLORS ARE FOR '08 EXPY, not yet confirmed for F-150

Just as I suspected on everything! (Found my Metra 70-5520 to cross reference.)

But one issue, I have no factory amp turn on wire (blue/green) where it should cross over to a red for ignition switched in the 70-5520...

So should I tap into the yellow/orange (antenna power) for my amp turn on?

Or would that only let the amp come on when the radio is running?

Any other wires close by or in the same bundle that may be switched bythe ignition?

I have a (factory side) solid orange in the #24 pin position, but nothing at the #2 spot as it should be...

Thoughts?

By the way, I am semi-documenting this install as I did the '06 F-150, though not as detailed with photos... I've got a killer stealth spot in back for one of the amps to reside... just need a ground spot...

Will post some pics later.

Have you done this?

I'm just not usually one for trial and error if I can help it. I did that back when I was 18... Hee hee... (no offense to anyone that's 18, btw - we all have to do it sometime!)

If there is any other ignition switched 12V around... I would just go there...

Maybe the 12V accessory outlet to the right of the center stack?

Just want to try and do it right the first time... and I've severely misplaced my voltage meter... as in "ain't seen it in years."

Ya.. If you hook it up to your antenna wire it should turn on- it will not hurt anything either way.. Or the white/orange in the ignition harness is that actual wire you need- its under the steering wheel...

Sweet... Thanks.

Think I'll do the one under the steering wheel.

I put a new pin through to the "factory amp turn on" position in spot #2... no dice... May not be a 12V source?

Anyway, I'll let y'all know when I'm up and bumpin'.


BTW- I found this over at 12V dot com
