Is this for a stereo or the main harness? If it is for the stereo, I can help you out. Otherwise, this info is probably useless for you. According to what crutchfield sent me;
orange: illumination/dimmer
black: chasis ground
red: 12v ignition/switched (12v+)
yellow: 12v battery/constant (memory)
blue: power antena/amp remote turn on
This all seemed to work fine, but I do remember calling them once about one wire that was not included in the instructions. I can't remember which one it was though. If you have any other questions regarding putting in a new head unit, I have the instructions for installing a new head unit with the bose acoustic wave stuff. I hope this helps some. Josh

Heres the funny thing, we had a 94 929 and a 93 rx-7 in the shop getting some audio. And I remembered your post, and then got busy doing them a forgot to write the colors down

All you have to do is take the speaker out, pop it with a 9v battery... Take the (+) on the lead you think is positive and (-) on the battery to the one you think is the negative, and hold it. If the speakers goes outward, your right, if it goes backwards towards the speaker basket your backwards
