2003lesabre

Hello everybody, i own a '03 Buick lesabre with door tweeters and am trying to replace my receiver/radio. I went to crutchfield.com and tried to find a radio, but it said that none were compatible with my car. I called them up and they said that the ribbon cable used for the 03' lesabre factory radio is completely different than any aftermarket cables, and that i would have to run 32 new wires from the fuse box to the new radio. This sounds like a pain in the ***!!! Has anyone heard of this problem before?? Isnt there just some adapter that i can buy that will convert the factory ribbon cable into a cable suitable for aftermarket receivers???
If i do have to run 32 new cables from the fuse box, which fuse box would i use? There are two in my car, one is under the hood by the engine, and the other is under the backseat. I have never run cable before but im assuming it just runs under the carpet...or through the firewall or something like that. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
