Default Radio wire color problem on 1995 mustang conv.

Problem finding the correct color wires on my 95 mustang convertible to install new pioneer radio, CAN ANYONE HELP?

I pulled up on the internet wire diagram for the car, but I can't find any of the colors that every diagram appears to be talking about.

I also pulled the rear left side speaker panel to make sure what colors they were and sure enough it's the colors on the diagram.
What am I doing wrong?

I powered the radio, everything works fine, but cannot find the correct wires to connect to the radio.
HELP!!!!!

to make this instal as easy as possible i would suggest getting a wireing harness to plug in to the existing or stock wireing harness. then you just match up the colors from the new harness to the raido wires. if the original harness has been cut off you can get a revers wiring harness and match up the wires to get it back to stock form. then move on to installing the radio wires. just a note the wires on the radio will be a different color than the wires in the car. what exactly doesnt work on the radio you said that it powered up but something is wrong? what is is? no sound? dont know what wires to use for the speakers? now power to the radio? ect.

The problem is that there is no sound. The main problem I'm having is the color of the wires coming off the speaker do not match up to any of the wires or wiring harnesses that are by the radio. I need to know if I need to take the wires off of the amplifier or the wiring harness that was hooked up to the original radio. Thanks for any assistance you can give me.

have you tried to switch the color speaker wires so that you may have the positive and negative wires backwards? if you have a factory amp in the car the problem could be that you have a blown fuse or the amp has gone bad. i would just run new speaker wire from the wires at the amp back to the head unit. to by pass the amp. you are able to also get a wiring harness for this connection to.
