Almost forgot. Do I have the RCAs hooked up right from the picture?

It depends on your deck, if you take a look at that second link I sent you it will tell you what channel each of them is for. Simply match this up with the channel on the HU (either printed on the back of the HU or in the install manual).

You want the RCA's connected to the Front speaker outputs (middle ones) go to White and Grey (white is Left and grey is Right)

The Purple and Green ones go to your Rear (some plug them into SW) (green is left and Purple is Right

Check that your blue wire on the antenna adapter is connected properly.

Got it! It works perfect! Thanks Matt!! :D I didn't hook up the steering wheel control adapter though. It looks confusing to hookup.

Hey 370zFTW,
One item to think about is the antenna in our car, it may be powered, which means it may require +12V to activate, in this case the blue harness wire will be the "Power Antenna" lead, in the old days folks used it to activate the power up/down antennas, now they're used to power the AM/FM antennas, some are diversity (two) or single, and some of them require +12V to work optimally.
As Mitco pointed out, the Metra harness should address that with a connection to the antenna if it is powered. If your AM/FM reception isn't as good as before the radio swap I'd look at the powered antenna possibility. If it doesn't matter then never mind!
