Default Stereo wire colours

Hey guys i think i found my problem when installing my new cd deck. I found that a couple of the wires have extensions on them with different colours that i couldn't see orginally. Does anyone have a list of all the wire colours and what they are? thanks

hmm on there it says black is ground....on mine it was red. Why do they do such funky colours? Isnt it pretty much a standard that red is power and black is ground?

Go here and put in the info for your car and it will tell you what you need, and show a wiring diagram of your cars layout.
