Hello I have a 2001 Accord and I was installing a aftermarket headunit and realized the color of the wires are way different from those of the aftermarket and I dont know which is power,ground or speakers etc. Can you please help me? All i need to know is what color is each wire or post a link to the info thanks.

look on the top of the stock reciever. it usually says what color wire is which.

this is the best i could find.

Front Left: + is blue/green
- is grey/black

Front right: + is red/green
- is brown/black

Rear Left: + is blue/yellow
- is grey/white

Rear Right: + is red/yellow
- is brown/white

i hope this helps. let me state once again though that i could only find this. i don't know how true it is or anything like that. do not hold me accountable if it is wrong.

thanks for the help, but what i mainly need to know is what color is the power, acc and ground and other cables that privide power to the stereo.the stock hu doesnt say anything and the cables from the car are 3 tyhicker ones which are
1 black
1 white with green stripe
1 white with red stripe
and then the thinner ones are:
red with black stripe
solid red
solid blue
blue with yellow stripe
red with green stripe
red with white or yellow stripe(dont remember
and then what i believe to be the speaker wires which were a set of brown with white and black stripe and then a set or gray with white and black stripes.

I tried connecting them to see if i would luckily get the colors right but nothing. the after market headunit has the common yellow red and black so i know those but these from the car i cant figure out.
