1G Positive wire radio harness

[Lofty]

Just a quick question, what color is the positive wire on the 94 talons radio harness?
Its really bugging me, because all my wires are fcked up back there, and I wanna know which one to take the most care of.

I would suggest using a test light to see which two are the positive and the ignition. The ignition wire becomes live when you turn the key to the acc position and is as dangerous as the constant power wire. Usually they are together in a harness and the constant positive is the thickest wire out of the bundle.

I want to hook up a toggle switch between the radio, so I can turn it on with a flip of a switch,
Which wire should I use to do this?

Hopefully one of these links will help out. They say something different so I'd use a multimeter to test it. And it also depends if you want +12V ignition or +12V constant.

You want to tap into the constant power wire with another wire and run it to the switch. At the other side of the switch run a wire to the radio's ignition wire, eliminating the wire that goes from the car's ignition to the radio simply by cutting the ignition wire. It is kind of ghetto but it works in order to bump the tunes when the car is off. You won't need a key to listen to the radio.

That is a good Idea, but I just have it so when I start the car it's off.
Then I flip it and then Its on.
Kinda useless, but cool at the same time.
I figured it out though.
Thanks to everyone
