what year is your old courier van ?

On the connects from 2003 - 2006 the stereos normally have 2 connecters for stereo (unless it has steering column controls for stereo fitted)

1 connector will be for Power (12v+ Batt, 12v+ Ign, ilumination, Keycode, ground)
1 connector for speakers (front Left, front Right)
1 connector for stereo controls on steering column.

If you can upload a pic of back of the stereo you want to fit showing the connection socket, I will be able to give you instructions on how to install it into your connect
