You can go down to a local stereo shop and get a wire harness that will plug into the stock setup.

I agree with Tom - it's easiest to buy the prewired harness, check Crutchfield.com if your local Best Buy, Circuit City, etc. can't help.

I found the following links a while back when I was working on my E36 stereo upgrade:
