I see that there are two different gray wires and two different yellow wires. How do I tell which for power and which is for speaker? Please Help!!!

Use a digital volt meter. One gray wire is the left front speaker negative and the other is the dash illumination lead. (Goes to 12 volts + with parking lights on and dims with dash dimmer). The two yellows are 12 volt + ignition and the other is the left rear speaker negative. It would be a good idea if you haven't cut off the factory plug yet to buy a install plug that takes all the confusion out and makes for a clean install. Any stereo shop will have one.

I had the same problem in my cavalier, not sure what chevy was thinking with that wiring. I used trial and error to find which was the rear left speaker and which was teh power/dimmer.
