I purchased a MXCP25 AM/FM/CD Stereo Package used off of Craigs list. It's all there, but I don't have the manual. There are many wire leading from the main unit as well as from the speakers. Can anyone send me a manual or send me to on online so I can make the installation.

Thanks - Bob

Not exactly sure of your stereo, but normal wire colors are:
yellow- constant 12V + (to keep the memory)
red- switched 12V + (to turn it on)
black- 12V -
green- left rear speaker +
green w/stripe- left rear speaker -
purple- right rear speaker +
purple with stripe- right rear speaker -
white- front left speaker +
white with stripe- front left speaker -
grey- front right speaker +
grey with stripe- front right speaker -
blue- remote turn on for amp

Your unit may differ though

I have a Dual MXD41 radio. Here are the wiring specs from my booklet and almost the same as the text above:

yellow- constant 12V + (connect directly to battery circuitry to keep the memory)
red- connect to switched 12V + such as aux switch on fuse panel (to turn it on)
black- 12V - (connect to neg bus bar to ground)
blue - remote turn-on (connect to amp or power antenna. Insulate if not used. I didn't need it)
green- left rear speaker +
green/black (w/stripe)- left rear speaker -
violet(purple)- right rear speaker +
violet/black (purple with stripe)- right rear speaker -
white- front left speaker +
white/black (w/stripe)- front left speaker -
gray- front right speaker +
grey/black (w/stripe)- front right speaker -

Hope that helps.
blue- remote turn on for amp
