1.im sure this has been asked on here a million times but does anyone know if metra or any co has wiring harness and "plate" avalible for our cars the factory cd player is horrible

2. after showing off my intake i noticed how tiny the plug wires are...will aftermarket ones for a probe work?
 
No wiring kit yet, but the dash is just 2 din sized openings. Get a din pocket, and put the deck above it. Been done many times.

There's only 2 plug wires on our cars. Dual coil-packs on top of the other 2. So you only replace 2 wires, are you really gonna gain anything?
 
there are 4 spark plugs so arent there 4 spark plug wires im no genuis but.....
 
I have a fairly good answer for you. When i installed my alpine into my P5 i had to do a little ghetto rigging, since the wiring harnesses are not available take a trip to the local hardware store and get some "t" type splicers. They work the best. settle with this until you can get a harness and solder it together.
 
Good question, Zoom. I probably didn't explain it right. Our engine uses two "coil packs" instead of a distributor. Both of those coil packs are each placed directly over the top of a spark plug, eliminating the need for two of the spark plug wires. From those packs each one wire goes to another plug, to get spark to all 4. Does this make sense? One pack directly connects to one plug and is wired to another plug. Take a look at the top of your engine. It will all make sense then.
