Radio Wiring Harness Help Please?

[College Student]

So I thought I have a MACH system because of the sub in the back but i don't know which harness (http://www.metraonline.com/vfg) i need for a new HU. according to metra i need either a 70-5517 or a 70-5701. the picture of the 5517 only has two plugs versus the three plugs of the 5701, my radio has three plugs plugged into it so should i get the 5701 even though it says its the premium?

mine has 2 plugs, only one of them I have hooked up to my aftermarket deck and it works fine. Crutchfield shows thats the harnesses for the stock sub are the one that has rca plugs for the sub and then the regular harness for the deck.

Sorry I didn.t check back in, one of the plugs is that of the normal speaker stuff, one is the sub and the third is for the steering wheel controls

the steering wheel control one isnt necessary unless you wanna keep your steering wheel controls with the new deck which Id guess you wanna. Sounds like youll need all three harnesses
