red, of coarse power

then there should be 8 wires that are color coded togerher in pairs, for speakers.

the rest, well you should be able to figure out from there...

main things you need to know. The 'matching' pair wires are speaker wires. You should have like 3 wires left over that you won't be using (2 blues, one for amp and other for power antenna, don't remember what the third one would be if there is one). If you wanna check which wires on the car go to which speaker you can put a AA battery in between the wires, and listen for which speaker makes a static sound. From the instruction on the deck you should be able to wire speakers to wires fine.

There's a wiring diagram for your stock stereo system in just about every shop manual (Haynes, Chiltons) that's available. should be labled with colors too.
