Default Radio harnesses

This isnt your hardcore tech or anything, but i cant find anyone around here that will give me an honest answer.

Cliff Notes: I have a radio and no harness and everyone i talk to says the harness is no where to be found..rendering the radio useless. Lemme hear your suggestions...thanks in advance.


The whole story...
Here is my situation:
Just bought my SE-R. Car had been broken into while sitting and someone FUBAR'd the stock radio that was in it. I have pulled that stuff out and was going to replace it with a random JVC AM/FM/CD player just so i can have something to listen to for my 80 mile round trip to school. The reason im using that "deck" is that i got it for free from another car my dad bought. It wasnt installed in that car, so none of the harnesses were with it.

My problem:
I now want to install this CD player into my SE-R and have no harnesses for it. I went to Audio One in Richmond and the guy said its impossible to get a harness for it...is that true? He truly seemed honest, but i know that he'd rather sell a $140 deck then a $5 harness. He said i'd have to contact JVC directly and have them send me one...and that it would cost a lot. He said if there was a local JVC dealer i could contact them...then he couldnt find one.

This was not going to be a difficult project and i wasnt prepared to spend any real amount of money to get this working. Im not looking for a "system" or any heavy, worthless shit like that..just a CD player that works. Anyone out there that does car audio got any advice? Anyone know what the hell im talking about? TIA
