Same here... I haven't completed my DNX install yet because I can't find the reverse signal... Well, I found something last night. There is, finally, a link to the repair manual that works.

I want to also tap the Illumination wires at that level too instead of going up to the clock area (which is the middle wire ..based on the repair manual.. I prefer the radio area, but I will have to look for that).

What is that used for? I'm confused, is that suppose to be the mini-round-atenna ?

There is two plugs that plugs into the back of the pioneer radio. One plug has two wires and the other plug has a whole bunch of wires (which I have adapter for it).

There are two antenna. One mini and one large (not sure if both can be used but there is an adapter for the mini at a local pepboys).

Yes... That's for the 99- GS... I used that same schematic for my Eclipse install and it was as smooth as butter...

Did you use the mini-antenna at all? My receptions aren't great even for local stations. (I'm going to pepboys to see if attaching the mini-power-antenna would improve reception).

This is my first time installing a radio...so my questions may be obvious. I'm still looking for the reverse signal.
