Default Need Radio Wiring Colors for 2005 LX HELP

I have scoured the net and have come up empty..... Need to know radio to speaker polarity ( + - vs color ) for my installation this weekend. Chilton Service manual shows color but that is it. I assume that would be the same for all 2003-200X Accords. Right rear has one Pink and one with stripe, and Left Read has stripes on both !!!!! Honda has not made it easy for us. From the "intergated " head unit to wire colors. Thanks Mark

BUY AN AFTERMARKET WIRE HARNESS.

Do not cut your stock radio's clip. Head over to Bestbuy, Circuit City, or Walmart and look for it .. it should be with the rest of the radios.

seriously... dont even think about cutting off your oem harness. 90% of the time, it will cause problems later down the road.

I have not tore into the dash/consoleRadio yet, but I bought the Walmart one for 98 and up Models (only one for Honda they had) and I'm not sure it is right. I also have on hand 2 (Male and Felmale) from Scoche I bought trying to do as you say save the stock harness. I hoping to actualy leave the Radio in and access from below. Is this possible? NOT looking forward to removing the console. How tough is it to remove the "storage box" below radio? I have looked over the "free" Honda install guide ( from Online Dealer,for OEM Remote CD changer install) but the "tool" shown is a in my box.... Did the Radio plug ins stay the same from 98-2005?
