Default Looking for wiring diagram for stereo for 07 dodge ram 1500 laramie

Been looking online for a coup le days and cant seem to find the right one.
I bought aftermarket stereo and of course no adapter so just going to splice it in myself. But any color code diagram I've seen doesnt match my truck.
It's got 7 speaker infinity system and 6 disk player with cassette player.
Theres 2 plugs on the back of the stereo one small and one big. would anyone be able to give me some insight

I used to do that, but the metro kits are so cheap and make it so easy without hacking your original harness - why bother?

I agree with fj5, metra has adapters that will make it easy and give you full functionality of radio features and controls. They also have a help line and likely have the wiring diagram you're looking for.
If you don't want to go with an adapter, what specific info are you looking for, color of wires? It seems like that info would be online, you're had no luck finding it?

Well where can I find these Metra adapters and do they work with the 7 speaker infinity set.
I was just at an audio shop today to get an adapter and he told me I needed some kind of data link that was going to cost over $250 bucks alone. Plus the adapter that would've been 50 bucks.
and I cannot find any color codes of wires anywhere that match what's behind my stereo for some reason

Google is your friend...
http://metraonline.com/

Fill out the fields to match your truck... If you have steering wheel controls, you'll probably need something extra. Once you find the part number(s) you need from metraonline, use Google again and find the cheapest retailer....


Or grab a factory service manual with the wiring diagram and start hacking...

they literally only have 2 on metra that fit my truck and they are for amp bypass, but it plugs back into the OEM radio.

Something to do with the infinity sound system that the amp needs to be bypassed. But ita seeming like I'm not goin to find anything for under 150. Which is more than I paid for this aftermarket stereo used lol.

the metra kits I've bought were usually under $25 shipped. I wouldn't say $150 was a good deal either.... there should be factory service manuals on this site to download, I have the 2004 pdf version.
