The colour codes are printed along side the cables,

Og- wh, orange with with trace
Og- bk, orange with black trace
Bn- ye , brown with yellow trace

It's really quite simple when you look at it

Hi, I'm in a vaguely similar situation.

I have a mk7 with a 6000 series cd/radio. The driver's door speaker blew some time ago and rather than spending a fortune on a genuine ford replacement, I decided to buy a pair of aftermarket ones. I've fitted the new driver's door speaker and routed the new cable through to the area behind the head unit, but my van is fitted with a Parrot hands free kit, spliced into the wiring for the radio. Behind the head unit, there is a total bird's nest of wiring.

Can anyone tell me what colour wires I should be looking for to disconnect the old speakers and wire up the new?

Thanks
