the three wires that are left over.... you can actually go back to the rear and look at the antenna and then find the same 3 wires at the front near your radio. Put all 3 wires together and hook those three wires up to your power antenna lead on the alpine.

send me an email and I will help you nlafforthun@bellsouth.net

I will send a wiring diagram in pdf and explain where to pick the wire up from the harness. I have installed my own single din Alpine. It is cool because the antenna only goes up when you switch it to tuner.
You have to be careful there is alot of bad info out there from people attempting it that shouldn't. I had one person tell me to tie all three antenna wires together
Also I innstalled mine using the factory amp (why buy another one), but had to put some noise arrestors on to reduce the whine.(this comes from a floating ground) When I get the time I will make the proper ground for the head unit)

If you tie all three together you will eventually burn the motor to the antenna out

how do you figure? I have had mine like this for over 3 years now. The antenna goes all the way up though with this setup.
