Default Aftermarket Stereo Wiring Disaster

So, go to put in stereo this weekend and things just went awful. I go ahead and tear apart the center console area (breaking my vents in the meantime, argh). Finally get the passenger seat out. Take my wiring harness inside, run long speaker wires to connect to harness out of my amp. After about these 2hrs of work, Im stumped. I go to the amp, unplug the two harnesses, and they dont match up! They have a different amount of pins and all different colors than the write-up I've been following. Which is this by the way:

The white harness is the one not lining up. Only thing the same is the power.
Anyone got any help for me before I end up paying $300 to have this crap put in professionally?

Are you adding your own amp as well. If you may be better off with integration into the factory sytem.
