85 GT stereo wiring

[Bio_Hazard2k8]

ok this problem I really haven't been able to solve since I bought the car a few months ago.... whoever took out the radio cut the harness and now theres no plug to it, I need to know what wires go to what before I start gutting my baby more than it is now. I found this but so far none of the colors are what I see (could be the dark lol) Heres what I found somewhere for an 85 Celica GT:
Left Front Speaker Wire (+): Pink
Left Front Speaker Wire (-): Purple
Right Front Speaker Wire (+): Light Green
Right Front Speaker Wire (-): Blue
Left Rear Speaker Wire (+): Black
Left Rear Speaker Wire (-): Yellow
Right Rear Speaker Wire (+): Red
Right Rear Speaker Wire (-): White

I need the STOCK wiring diagram for the radio, if anyway has a stock radio still please take some shots of the wiring for me and lable each wire so I know.


P.S. the wiring at the plugs for the speakers don't match whats up front

I used to have an 85GT, this is the best I can do; fairly sure but not 100%.......

FRONTS:
Left Front Speaker Wire (+): Pink ------------->white
Left Front Speaker Wire (-): Purple------------>white/black stripe
Right Front Speaker Wire (+): Light Green---->grey
Right Front Speaker Wire (-): Blue------------>grey/black stripe

REARS:
Left Rear Speaker Wire (+): Black------------>green
Left Rear Speaker Wire (-): Yellow------------>green/black stripe
Right Rear Speaker Wire (+): Red------------>purple
Right Rear Speaker Wire (-): White----------->purple/black stripe

Grey = 12V Ignition
Brown = ground
Blue/Yellow Stripe = constant power
Black/Red Stripe = Power Antenna
Pink/Blue Stripe = Power Antenna

Even if the speaker wire colours are not 100%, you can switch them around until you get the right hook up.

My manual gives the following

Right Front Speaker Wire (+): GrB

FRONTS:
Left Front Speaker Wire (+): VG
Left Front Speaker Wire (-): GrR
Right Front Speaker Wire (+): GrB
Right Front Speaker Wire (-): VW

REARS:
Left Rear Speaker Wire (+): BrY
Left Rear Speaker Wire (-): BrB
Right Rear Speaker Wire (+): BrR
Right Rear Speaker Wire (-): BrW

I'm going to assume the abbreviations are meant as follows
FRONTS:
Left Front Speaker Wire (+): VG (Violet/Green)
Left Front Speaker Wire (-): GrR (Green/Red)
Right Front Speaker Wire (+): GrB (Green/Blue)
Right Front Speaker Wire (-): VW (Violet/White)

REARS:
Left Rear Speaker Wire (+): BrY (Brown/Yellow)
Left Rear Speaker Wire (-): BrB (Brown/Blue)
Right Rear Speaker Wire (+): BrR (Brown/Red)
Right Rear Speaker Wire (-): BrW (Brown/White)

If worse comes to worse I'll bring up the trim pieces and following the wiring back to the dash. In theory couldn't I just run my own wiring from the speakers to the dash area? Or is there something they go into before meeting under the dash?
