On the radio I got I need to hook up 3 wires. OK the first one is a power battery. It says connect directly to the battery but isn't there a wire I can splice into? The second one is the ground, it says hook to the vehicle, but isn't there a wire I can splice into? And the last one is the one I have to splice into the ignition so it turns on when the key is on. Which one is that? Thanks guys!

Battery: get a 12V tester and see which wire has a constant i *think* its a red wire back there.
Ground: never use the stock ground with an after market deck see if you can ground it somewhere, be sure to sand down the area to the paint.
ignition: this is where the tester comes in handy again. I *think* this is the yellow wire this wire should have no power with the car off but power when you put the key in the acc position or when the car is running.
I hope that helps...

As CAMAROWIDBASS said, do not use the factory ground. Make your own straight to chassis.
