blue or blue and whit
it will be your amp triger or power antana
if it only has power for 30 sec or so when turning the deck on or off it antana if it always on when the deck is it goes to your amp remote

white and grau wires should be rear speakers and purple and green wires are your front speakers(I think)

if you want your amp to stay on at all times when radio power is on, just hook it up to the red wire(12 volt source). itll only stay on as long as your radio is on. if you use your antenna wire you wont get your amo to stay on when you put in a cd.

you wont have a problem if your running all six speakers. just wire the 4 front speakers to the front left and right accordingly, and the same for the rear.

front left +white, -white with black stripe
front right +gray, -gray with black stripe
rear left +green, -green with black stripe
rear right +purple, -purple with black stripe
constant power is yellow
ignition power is red
ground is black
amp turn on is blue with white stripe

to run the dash and door speakers together off the radio the safest way is to series them up. refer to diagram. this will leave the rear channels of the radio free to power the rear speakers.

i am not running an amp, i am using stock components. my car came with the Aktiv system (VW crap amp system)and you need to extensively mod the exsisting wires or run all new. the prev owner hacked it and now im fixing it. nothing performance at all other than the cd player
