dvd player install help
i got my pioneer 6500 dvd player/ lcd screen unit today and was reading the directions and i have a couple questions. first is, how do i connect my speakers to it? it has 8 wires that are like 5 inches long and it says to connect 2 wires to each speaker, how do i do that? do the wires from the speakers go to the head unit? i didnt install my stero so i dont know.
then its says connect a orange/white wire to "a lighting switch terminal"......wtf is that? and what is "a terminal always supplied with power regardless if ignition switch position", is that just the positive terminal to the cars battery?
and to bypass the e-brake function so i can watch it any time, i just take the green grounding and just connect it to a regular ground point? if anyone can help me out with this i'd appreciate it.

speakers wires
2 front speakers
2 rear speakers
each speaker has polarity, 2 of each, positive and negative, total of 8 of all 4 speakrs
battery wire is usually the yellow wire, it keep your hu, with power constanly, use for your memory
ignition is usually the red wire, turn on & off your hu
orange/white is illumination
usually to bypass the tv, just ground the wire, for alpine tv it different but u got pioneer, so grounding just might be it
all the harness are color code now, make it easier, just match the color yo
