Where do you connect the red power wire for aftermarket radio in new gm?

That depends. There should be two red power wires on the back of an aftermarket deck. One will be 'constant' power, the other will be 'switched' power. The 'constant' one always has power, so that radio stations and other settings aren't erased when the vehicle is turned off. I'm assuming you're not using an adapter harness to connect the aftermarket deck directly to the GM radio harness.(always the preferable option) Most of the time(when not using an adapter harness) I will locate a pre-existing wire in the dash that is 'constant', and tap into that for the 'constant'. The 'switched' power can be connected to the factory radio's 'switched' power source. You'll have to figure out which wire that is in the GM harness and connect to that, or (not so ideally) cut that wire and connect it to the deck.

Putting a aftermarket radio in a 2000 sable?

Go to Circuit City and get a harness kit! You will need the harness kit that is available at Best Buy and other locations. However, my 2001 VW Cabrio did not have a switched +12V source (source that turns on or off with the ignition key). Without a switched +12V source the radio will remain on when the key is removed from the ignition if you have not manually turned the radio off and your battery will be drained. A switched +12V source is available from the rear defroster switch (black and yellow wire). Connect a wire from this switched +12V source to the red wire of the harness kit. You must also cut or remove the red wire from the socket of the wire harness kit because it will be connected to a non-switched +12V source of your car.

Where is the radio antenna located on a 2006 Ford Fusion?

on the 2006 models of the ford fusion. the radio antenna is embedded in the back glass with the rear defrosters. It's important to know that when installing aftermarket radio you should connect pin 5 on the radio harness to a switched 12v source. If not done this will cause problems with radio reception! pin 5 is the antenna's booster power wire and was originally powered off of the stock radio but the aftermarket radios do no supply this power source. I reccommend using a relay and the remote antenna wire and 12v constant wires off the new radio harness to make this connection! this will allow the the remote wire to switch the relay on and off when the radio powers on, and connect the the tapped 12v constant wire to the antenna booster power! thats how i would do it!
