    Wires

    You don't need to connect either of them to anything. One is for a power antenna and the other is for a cell phone mute function. If you had a cell phone installed in your car you could connect the mute to the cell phone and when the cell phone rings it would mute the radio.

    Wires

    Well you wouldn't need to connect the blue/black one. That must be used for the wired remote. Don't honestly remember about the negative dimmer (orange/black). You could check the matching pin on the connector in the car and see if that pin is used or not. I just looked at the wiring diagram for the radio and don't see any mention of a dimming signal comming into the radio.

    There are some wire you dont' need to connect.

    I installed the Pioneer 7600 in my car a month ago and my dads car yesterday.

    Follow the pioneer install guide, the one that shows you how to wire your rear speakers if you want to use them off the HU. Wire everythign that's applicable. You don't have a power antenna so you don't need that. You probably don't need the cell mute or the remote control wire either.
