Perhaps I'm missing the point but I assume that the old wires "plugged in" to the old unit. That would be your harness- it should have just unplugged from the back of the original radio. Some suppliers (Crutchfield comes to mind) sell an adapter with the radios you purchase from them that simply plugs into the original plug that used to plug into the old radio- they also give you instructions. If you don't have something like this you will need to identify all the wires that used to run to your radio.

I wasn't aware that the 1989 240's had a factory amp. Neither of mine had factory amps. If yours does then I think you should simply eliminate it as is the procedure for installing aftermarket units in the later 740's equipped with factory amps. Sorry I can't be more help.
