Hello people.

I am looking for a stereo wiring color code guide for a 1997 lincoln continental with the amplified system.

I am also looking for the same thing for a 1998 lincoln mark viii with amplified system.

In particular, I am seeking the small black connector (amplifier/speaker) plug wire color codes.

In the 97' continental, the plug wires are [blue/white stripe]; [gray]; [black]; [tan]; [GREEN/ black stripe]; [tan/orange stripe]; [BROWN / green stripe]; [WHITE/ pink stripe]; [blue/pink stripe]; [pink/blue stripe] 

In the 98' mark viii, the plug wires are [GREEN/ black stripe]; [WHITE/ pink stripe]; [brown]; [PURPLE / white stripe]; [sky blue]; [black]; [green]; [WHITE/ orange stripe]; [sky blue/black stripe]; [yellow]

I assume that the black wires for both are the grounds, and the yellow for the 98' is the 12v power.  But the rest I haven't the slightest idea.  If anyone can provide me with information on which wires are for what with regard to these amplified systems, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
