2010 ml350 radio wiring...

Hey guys. 1st post. I have searched and searched. Can anyone lead me in the right direction... I am/have installed a new radio in the ml350. The radio has 2 wires (key 1 and key 2) that I'm certain are for the steering wheel controls (volume, channel). But I am not sure which wires they need to connect to.

Thanks

What new radio are you installing, OE radio. aftermarket? More info needed.

Have no idea what key 1 & 2 means.

Aftermarket radio. Android by Seicane.
Honestly just need a wiring diagram that tells me what each factory installed wire does. I can do the rest. I have searched and searched

You specifically asked for a wire color guide and nothing about what each color does.

"But looking for wire color guide if possible."

Keep laughing and you won't get anything further.

Are in dash amplifiers compatible with this vehicle? I'm thinking of installing an Alpine KTP-445U in dash amp

How am I supposed to know about any Alpine amp. Whenever you invade the original wiring you might well have problems. At your risk.
