Double Din headunit DIY?

Hey everyone. Im helpin a friend install a new kenwood 9140 in his 06 coupe that "had" bose in it and need a little help with the main wires. Since i ran new wire and using rcas for audio i need the basic 4 wires to have the headunit turn on. ive got the yellow red and orange already wired up and the ground just needs to be screwed down. But i cant figure out the speed wire? From what ive found on the forums, the pink wire from the smaller factory harness is the speed wire, but it needs to be bridged to the white/green wire on the larger factory harness? this white/green wire on the facotry harness turns into the power antenna wire (blue) tho.. this is kinda where im lost. what am i doing wrong? why cant i get this damn thing to turn on!! all i get out of the headunit is a small red triangle that lights up on the bottom right. any help with pictures would be greastly appreciated..

If I recall correctly, the speed wire is the white/green. The only bridging you do is to disable features that cannot be discussed on this forum.

ok, maybe i should refrase my question. what color on the kenwood wire on the kenwood harness needs to be connected to what color on the nissan harness in order for it to turn on. i have orange yellow red and black already. i cant figure out what the last one i need. so far i heard that the wire is lime green and the wire is also green/white.

it's in the instruction manual, but the lime green I believe is parking brake. green/white is likely your speed sensor

Did you happen to have the blue "remote" wire hooked up?
