Anyways I got my deck taken and they cut my wires. What am I going to need now so I can put a deck back in?
The guys that did it tried getting into my trunk from my back seat and my trunk is all reinforced so they just messed my Seat up. All they had to do hit the button and they were gonna be walking away with about $750. 2 "12 Kickers and a 1600W amp.

Shitty shitty, what type of hu did you have? And they got in through the trunk you say? Were did they cut the wires at? The factory wires, or the aftermarket wires? Look for a wiring diagram for your car.

Where did you get jacked? Did you have an alarm?
Sorry to hear this, I've had my fair share of stuff jacked. What do you mean that trunk is reinforced?

A few options...
1) You buy a new wiring harness from a Junkyard or dealer
2) You figure out what wires are what (DMM) or get a wiring schematic
3) You just say forget it and run all new wiring...

The car is a 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis. I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan. And no, I had no alarm at the time. But when the new deck gets put in an alarm is getting thrown in too.
They cut my wiring right from the dash. I had the old Ford Factory Casette player in when I bought it so I had to have a dash kit. They ripped that out and cut my Ford Factory Wires. The thing is that these dumb ass people cut the wire and then unplugged it from the deck. I think I still have the plug end.
Do you think I could Splice the wires back together?

If you got the original wires still and the original connector ya just splice it back together. Butt connectors or solder and heat shrink...

Moving on is dificult. I got jacked twice. The second time I missed it by 5 minutes tops. i was pissed forever. I pulled my dash shell down, and modded a brace directly to my support. Now even I have a terrible time getting my cd player out hehe. Bastards wont be taking it again though.
