Re:after market radio wire to stock wire
The speaker wires shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
From new radio, take the yellow and red and connect both of them to your cars constant 12+ power. Black to ground, and the speakers to speakers. Pm me if you need any other help.

Re:after market radio wire to stock wire
the stock honda wires arent to hard to figure out, anything that there is 2 of like the brown wire is a speaker wire, usually anything with a black stripe is (-). also i believe it is a red wire that is the constant 12v and another red with green stripe is the acessory power wire. As far as ground i believe it is black on ur radio as well as the stock honda wiring.. but u can grand the radio wherever, doesnt have to be to a specific wire.. just a good metal surface.
let me know if this helps

Re:after market radio wire to stock wire
Ok, this is the best way to find out, this is what all the guys do at car toys and stuff. Take a nine volt battery and just randomly hook up wires to the terminals, as soon as you hear a scratching sound in a speaker you know you found the two wires for whatever speaker is making a scratching noise.
Try to get wires that look the same and then put them on the battery to try to get a scratching sound.
also if you cannot figure out which one is positive and which one is negative here is a way to figure that out:
when you find which wires go where take two wires from one of the speakers. Uncover the speaker so you can see it. Hook the wires to the terminals and hold it for only a bit on them.
If the speaker gets sucked in then wires are wrong way, but when you hook the wires to the terminals and the speaker bumps outwards, then the wire that is on the poitive terminal of the battery; that is the poitive wire to the speaker.
If you are scared to blow your speakers just use a small AAA battery or somethin.
If you have any other questions PM me

kero's info is correct but I dont see two brown wires paired together w/ one of them having a black stripe?
the stereo sidee of the wiring should have labels or a diagram on the bottom of the deck. (or the manual
)
