Radio wiring diagram

Just wondering what color the power antennas wire is. Sort of a stupid post but with the aftermarket radio a couple wires got left disconnected (dim and light or w/e those useless wires are for) and i lost my wiring diagram so i just wanna make sure the antenna wire is hooked up. The antenna adapter is but theres also that power antenna wire. thanks

the one leading to the rod antenna to get your signal... should be yellow.

if you used an adapter harness just make sure you hooked up BOTH blue wires and taped off the 2 orange ones
Blue are switched power (one is amp and the other antenna)
Orange are illumination and Dimmer. I haven't seen an aftermarket HU with them yet.

because if you are leaving the stock speakers connected to the stock amps that's the only way they will work.
the bose and active speaker systems both had amplified speakers, though the active system had only the rear amped.

my rear speakers have been replaced with sony explods so no amps anyway, would this mean i dont need the amp wire hooked up? The only two wires left unhooked are the blue amp and white/blue wire wihch is for the power antenna i believe
