Re: aftermarket stereo
You don't need any special harness at all. The amp will work fine with any typical harness for your car.
The problem you will have with a 92 or 93 is that your Electronic Climate Control display brightness is controlled by the stock stereo head unit, and when you go aftermarket, it will go full bright at all times.
Here's an idea for you:

Page 2 and 3 are the meat of the matter. In your case, if you keep the stock REAR speakers, keep the factory amp.
