Audio Systems/substituting am/fm tape player on 92 dodge stealth to am/fm tape/cd player form 91 3000gt

Question
I recently purchased a 91 3000gt am/fm tape/cd combo to replace my defective am/fm tape on my 92 dodge stealth (has static problems,tape player ok). Installation was easy except of course, I do need some type of harness adapter. My 92 stealth only has a two plug harness and when I plugged it in the 91 3000gt unit, I got power, but no sound. There is a black square plug along with a round black plug on the 3000 gt unit near the identical looking plugs from my stealth unit that I feel sure play a part in this problem. To sum up, 2 plugs on stealth radio plus antenna connection. 4 plugs on 3000gt unit 2 same as stealth unit, 1 more square plug and black round plug I guess for cd and equalizer and then antenna connect.?Can you help me? thanks

You may have to hunt around for your exact model and year for the right harness/cable pieces.

Best wishes.
