Using 2004 Dodge Ram with 7 Speakers without Uconnect Wiring Information to see what the wires SHOULD be, does anyone know which of the diagrams on that page refer to the AMP OUT side of things?

And would be a safe assumption to think I can just connect the wires form an aftermarket radio harness directly to the Speaker wire on the OUTPUT side of the amp (Via an extension wire with a barrel connector on each side) ?

I don't want to have to play games with a 9v on each lead to see what wires go where, and which are + or - - so I amhopin the above link is accurate and shows the OUTPUT side of the amp..

This should take 2 seconds ( once the dash panels are removed ) to do if everything here jives.

(I'm using an aftermarket head unit, with NO amp, direct connection to all four door speakers ) I will be using an amp and dedicated subs for lows using rca pre amp outputs off the head.

I keep seeing posts that SAY to bypass, or send you to a link for an expensive BYPASS WIRE ADAPTER, but none that FULLY explain how to do it.

Thank you in advance for your help !

Possibly the harness on left? Harness on the right is showing input which Im assuming is coming from the headunit.

Also, the harness going to the headunit and harness to the right(on amp illustration) also match up in wire colors.

So if you need to bypass the amp, run the wires from the aftermarket headunit to the wires connected to the harness on the left of the amp illustration.
