Look at a wiring diagram from trochoid's profile and then the labeling on your stereo. It isn't that hard to do...

I just did some wiring myself. Make sure you use a continuity tester or multimeter to check for voltage. I believe the blue/yellow, with red is the constant hot. Blue/White or Blue Yellow alone is the switched power.

in my stereo experience... yellow is 12v+ red is accessory... whatever is left is most likely your illumination switch (if you have one) or your amp remote.. my amp remote is blue.
