Need Help Wiring in new Pioneer Head Unit

so heres what im looking at in terms of wiring. PAC SWI-PS in the top left corner, Pioneer AVH-P4400BH Harness in the top right corner, and C2R-GM11 harness at the bottom.

now from the pac swi-ps instructions:

black to ground- no issue there
red to 12v switched source/ acc- not sure which wire i should tap for this, or if i should add-a-fuse into an accessory fuse like the wipers
and green to dk blue on connector 1- although there is a wire on the c2r-gm11 harness that says to connect it to swc output so which should i use?

c2r-gm11 harness instructions say:

yellow to 12v constant voltage- should this be hooked up to a positive terminal from the battery? or is there a better wire to tap?
black to ground- once again no issues there
red to 12v R.A.P voltage 1 amp max- not sure where this should connect/tap to. red on the new head unit harness?
blue/white to antenna turn on, amplifier turn on- not sure about this one, possibly it goes to the blue/white on the new headunit harness?
orange to dimmer illumination- not sure about this one, possibly it goes to the orange on the new headunit harness?
lt green to swc output wire- says to connect this to a pac swi interface. should i use this wire for the pac swi-ps instead of the dk blue that it says to use in the instructions?
purple and purple/black, green and green/black, white and white/black, grey and grey/black to speaker inputs- i think they connect to corresponding colours on the new head unit harness?

pioneer head unit instructions say:
yellow wire connect to constant 12v supply terminal- to the battery again i think? or a different wire to tap?
orange/white to lighting switch terminal- i think orange from the c2r-gm11?
red to terminal controlled by ignition switch- maybe red from the c2r-gm11 harness?
black to chassis ground- no issues there
white and white black to front speaker left- to the corresponding colour on the c2r-gm11 harness?
grey and grey/black to front speaker right- to the corresponding colour on the c2r-gm11 harness?
green and green/black to rear speaker left or subwoofer 4 ohm- to the corresponding colour on the c2r-gm11 harness? it has a note that says when using a subwoofer of 70w 2 ohm to connect the violet and violet/black leads but not the green ones, so im not sure which way to wire this one.
violet and violet/black to the rear speaker right or subwoofer 4 ohm- to the corresponding colour on the c2r-gm11 harness?
violet/white to one of the two leads connected to the back lamp, connect the one in which the voltage changes when the gear shift is in the reverse position- do i have to run that to the back of my car and cennct it to my reverse lights?
yellow/black to mute function, if you use equipment with the mute function, wire this lead to the audio mute lead on that equipment. if not keep the lead free of any connections- does this wire have to be used to control my mute for my steering wheel controls? and which wire would that be?
light green used to detect on/off status of the parking brake. must be connected to the power side of the parking brake switch- im going to have to check on how to bypass this to watch video while the car is in motion.
blue/white to system control terminal of the power amp or auto antenna relay- i believe to the blue/white on the c2r-gm11 harness?

if anyone can help me and confirm these or give me some advice or tips on this it would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

so i think i have everything down and i know where everything goes except for the violet/white reverse signal wire i dont think i need yet since i dont have a reverse light camera. and the yellow/black mute wire i dont know where that goes. i think i might need a relay to bypass the parking brake activation? anyone done this?

I have this same radio. I used a scoshe kit from walmart that was like $80. thkit had the dash kit and the scoshe chime adapter. all I had to do was wire the radio harness to the scoche adapter then plug it into the car. As far as the brake bypass I went to advanced auto and picked a 12v relay and some terminal conectors. On the relay tie pins 86 and 87 together and then hoo the to the ground wire fron the radio harness. hook pin 85 to the remote turn on wire. then hook pin 30 to the parking brake wire fronm the radio.

Good luck with your install. Hope you like it as much as I do.
