For those who have experience installing a cd deck. I have all the wiring stuff i need since i previously had an aftermarket cd deck. I dont know what a cars "illumination signal" is. Is it required to have it? Can someone please tell me what it is so i can know where it can hook up to. Thanks

basically that function is pretty useless imo. all it does is when you turn on your parking light and headlight, the color of your desk will become dimmer that's all

Ok, I like to have the illumination thing working so the buttons light up at night.

This OEM system is clarion in the S13 and should be the same for the S14:

Clarion uses the industry standard wiring colors. Not every unit will have all of the listed wires
