3rd Generation Installing a HU in my Camry checklist

I'm bringing my haynes (although it looks straight forward), I also have all the documentation of the headunit that's in (a jensen) and all the installation accessories I received from cardomain.com along with my soldering iron (if need be), crimping tool, needle nose plyers and wire cutters/strippers.

is there any information about the wires I on the car itself I need to know?
This is my first time installing a HU so I'm not quite so sure of the process.
I got my S-AFC II installed on my own in the Cam too, so I have knowledge with working with electrical systems.

Am I just going to matching colors between wires and crimping them together or what should I expect? My assumption is I'll just be matching wire colors.

thanks guys.

k, I'm pretty sure I have everything. I have pin-out diagrams from rayray's site, the entire installation article from installdr.com and their pin-out, wiring harnesses, the black bezel for under the CD-player, my soldering iron, 60/40 solder, extra wire (if I need to extend any), heatshrink, an installation accessories packet, my needle nose plyer/crimper/wire slicer/wire cutter combo tool and pretty much my entire tool box.

a multimeter or circuitsafe testlight might be a good idea also just incase something goes wrong.

thanks guys, everything's done and installation was easy, although tedious.
I'm having trouble with CD, once that's done I'll post some pics.
I documented the entire installation in pictures.
