new cd player, need fresh wiring help, no deck installed when bought

ok so im lookin in the dash and there are no wires, a few, but only a few and they arent for the radio.

i ran new speaker wires, and i need to know what wires i need to hook up my deck to run, i just got a pioneer deck and i was reading on another thread there is

red - 12v battery power
yellow - 12v ignition power
black - ground
blue - remove
rest are speaker wires

now i need to know where can i run the red, and yellow wires, any nice spots? thanks in advance.

according to what you have there, the red wire should be hooked up to constant power, the yellow wire should be hooked up to power when the ignition comes on. black should go to any good body ground. the blue one is "remote", not remove. it's used for power antennas, but is also very useful when wiring an amp.

yes i know the wires but i have none of them sittin in the radio pod. i need to go looking.

i was told i could use the orange cigarette lighter wires for 12v+ constant power, and the black for a ground. then i could look on the fuse box for the yellow 12v ignition wire. i have the antenna wire behind but the antenna was removed and body filled over for looks i dont listen to much radio anywy.
