if you have a test light or can get a hold of one, the job is really quite simple.
with the test light make sure the ingnition is off, and test each wire to find out which wire has power, turn the ignition to acc and see which wire now has power, the ground wire i would imagine you could connect to and earthing point on the car. as for the speaker wires, hook them up to the corosponding speaker (left or right)

are you working on a luv, or different kind of car?

if you are working on a newer car, go to walmart, or best buy and get a wiring harness, so you can wire up the radio, then plug into your OEM plug.
