Installing radio in a 1100

I'm installing a radio in my 1100 and I'm a bit spun out on the wiring. I found a nine pin block with 7 wires. 4 pink-1 black-1 white/green tracer-1 red/white tracer. I assume the black is ground, the red/white tracer is switched power. The white/green tracer could be constant power. The pink wires must be speakers. They have colored coded dots on them, but I have no idea which is ground nor which is left or right. I can pull the headliner and figure it out, but I'm hoping someone knows what's what before I do that.

Thanks, John

I don't have an 1100 so I don't have any first-hand knowledge.

There are several threads here related to this. Do a forum search for radio or stereo.

Hi. I have this to add to the pot. ;) I bought a used Kentwood radio with cd player and this wiring schematic came with it. I hope it helps somewhat.( I have a 900 open air). bordercollie

Just some food for thought if you ever need to find speaker wires coming from speakers in a vehicle this can be done by using a 1.5 volt battery like AA just touching the wires to the battery it will make a slight scratching sound in the speaker it is connected too without doing any damage to the speakers.
Attachment shows how Kubota should have mounted radio in my opinion.
