yeah they are correct and the same, regardless of being a coupe of a vert... perhaps you are mis-understanding the system:



see all the same wire colors for the speakers and power wires.

Please read the FAQ for FC before posting

If you can't read factory style schematics I don't know how to help.

All the power and speaker wire colors are the same from the head unit as a coupe anyway.

Way up to the left top it tells the wire colors when in ACC or ON and HOT ALL TIMES. I can't read the wire colors on my cheap hp pavillion. Blue/White and Blue/Red if the blurres were read right.

P.S. It would help if everyone who has a problem gave a hint at least, of what year his/her car is.
