replacing aftermarket head unit with stock one and they cut the OEM harness....

hi i bought my car with this jensen flip screen head unit and im sick of it. I recently purchased a stock head unit to replace the jensen but when i started to remove the unit i saw a huge rats nest of wires and noticed that they just cut the oem harness off and threw it away. I have no idea what wire goes to what so im thinking that i need to buy a wiring harness and clip so i can splice and re-wire the oem unit in.

question is, where can i find a stock plug and wires? i already have the oem unit, but i cannot find anyone selling the plug or anything..

Most car audio places sell a reverse harness for just that purpose. Best Buy should have it too.

That really sucks. IMO, there is never a reason to completely cut the OEM harness. Whomever did that install was a hack-job. All that to save $20 or less that it would have cost to buy an aftermarket wiring harness.
