So i've pretty much got everything wired correctly i think, but my only question now is the what do i do with the two wires left on the wiring harness i purchased. Theres a dimmer positive (orange/white) and a dimmer negative (orange/negative). While on the head unit, i have this one wire called illumination which is the second picture. Any help appreciated.

hook the dimmer up to illumination or dont hook it up at all. Theres not that big of a differnece on the alpine's auto dimmer.

Hook the Alpine orange to the Orange/white stripe on the Toyota harness. Dumb question? Better asking when not sure than guessing.

I have a quick question as well, I bought a panasonic deck and I bought a wire harness. I connected everything up and the toyota wire harness has a orange wire that the panasonic deck doesnt. What do I do with the orange wire?

CDA-9855 kicks ass. Best deck I ever used. Best sound quality by far.
