Many car stereo stores sell plug-in harness adapters that convert a factory 
harness connector to aftermarket stereos.  It might be worth the cost even if 
you had to get one with the wrong vehicle-end connector, cut it off, and splice 
the remainder into the car.

  If I remember right, that small harness just allowed a standard clarion or 
panasonic radio to plug into the factory harness.  www.jltroy.com sells the 
clarion end you need.  I don't know if they sell to the public but if not, I'm 
sure they could direct you to a dealer.  Metra also makes those plugs and has a 
color catalog that's probably online so you can see exactly what you want.

    I purchased a bone yard factory AM/FM/CD radio to replace the flaky one in 
my daughters 2000 Suzuki Esteem. When I went to install it, I found that the 
previous owner had soldered the wires directly to the connector on the radio. 
It was ugly and probably why the radio was hosed.

    Even though there is a short wiring harness between the CD and main dash 
harness, I cannot buy this from the dealer. No boneyards have this, or it isn't 
worth there time to find/sell it.

    I'd make a harness if I could find a compatible connector, but have had no 
luck. Radio is Clarion, and it has one connector on back for all wiring. It is 
rectangular with 14 pins. The pins are broken up into 3 sections. 2 sets of 
6(2X3) on the either side with 2 pins in the middle. Center release detent.

    Does anyone have any sources for radio connectors?

    Thanks....Steve
