Unhappy Cant install aftermarket radio with wire

I got a 97 audi with the delta radio and I bought the wire harness but the colorful wires wont fit into the freaking harness for the amp and stuff. SO, I bought this other harness and I am praying it fits because this is getting annoying. I got the front speakers to work but that triple colored set of wires wont fit into the harness. This is what I bought now. I need help please!

not another radio harness question...................
anyways since you dont have the bose system i would assume you would need metra part 70-1784, which is NOT the one in the link. dont now if thats the one you used before. if you already tried that one, the 70-1787 will work. the difference is the 1784 is used on a nonamplified sysmtem and the harness is basically square. the 1787 is rectangle with a few extra wires and is used with the amplified bose system.
