96 xlt with jbl & cd = what the hell?!?!?!?

[Gabe96Explorer]

I have a 4dr 96 XLT with JBL & CD (Center arm rest CD Pack Changer). (rear amp and antenna wire)

I just got this pioneer headunit - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0091UX3QI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
I got this kit so that I could integrate it with the factory subwoofer so I can avoid having to rip my truck apart. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12671_Metra-70-5603.html

The green connector will NOT connect to the black square connector.

So I got the huge universal ford scosche kit from Walmart which also has the JBL after market wiring for the previous generation as well- DOESNT FIT http://www.walmart.com/ip/Scosche-88-97-FORD-Car-Stereo-Connector/870826

The connector is the SAME and won't connect.

I DO NOT want to run bypass cables because I want to just replace my entire factory amp enclosure with a direct bolt in soon. (irrelevant)

Basically, this doesn't make any freaking sense. I buy the correct connectors to wire this up and the connectors are wrong? What am I missing?

See here. Black wire is stock wiring. Green is the aftermarket kit. Even if I were to mod the stock connector to make it fit, the pins are in the wrong configuration.

I have looked at the numerous threads here and I have been unable to find the help I need to figure out WTF is going on.

Someone PLEASE HELP ME before I decide to go on a shooting rampage and murder everyone at Meta & Scosche & possibly Ford. ALL I WANT IS THE HEAD UNIT TO WORK WITH THE RADIO AND MY EFFING STREAMING BLUETOOTH.

After looking at this now... I can 100% determine that some one jackwagoned this thing before me. The connector isn't right. Someone had an aftermarket headunit in here and butchered the wiring. They used a different radio and connector to return this thing back to "stock" appearance. there is electrical tape all over this thing.

I am going to need this and convert it back to stock wiring - http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12670_Metra-71-5600.html

I need either this above or do I need to go find a donor XLT with JBL and cut it out?

Am I correct you guys think?

no one at all eh?

those plugs should work... the pins inside may need some adjustment...

The issue is that the factory connector, doesnt work with the green integration harness. the channels DO NOT line up. at all.

This is what SHOULD be on my truck... but its not....
