Unhappy Audio help

Can anyone tell me the color coding for the speaker wiring in the 88 420 sel? I found all the others but cant figure out what wires run to the speakers. It's a wierd setup. Please help if you can.

Do yourself a favour and run new wiring/do away w/ the factory fader.. It will sound Much better that way.

it's not hard unless you don't know how they attach, in which case most people end up cracking/breaking the S*&^ out of everything. Do you have the service CD's? If not I'd strongly recommend you get a set as they will have a Lot of this sort of thing for your perusal.
