Multiple wires of the same color in factory stereo, 95 lesabre

Given that: Constant 12v + orange Switched 12v + yellow Ground Black/white illumination grey/black dimmer brown/white antenna trigger dark green left front speaker + tan left front - grey right front + light green right front - dark green left rear + brown left rear - yellow right rear + dark blue right rear - light blue How can I tell which Dark Green wire is for the Antenna Trigger and which is Right front (-)? My factory stereo had 3 identical Dark Green wires. What about which yellow is the Switched 12v and which is the Left Rear (-)? These wires appear identical to me. Thanks for you help. Brian

Brian, first of all, make sure you have a multimeter and let's agree on one thing: any wire that has a switched voltage or a voltage to control antenna or motor has to be DC type of voltage, right? The other ones for the speakers are AC voltages as in music, right? Therefore, I would go with a meter between the wire and ground and measure on the DC scale and turn the radio on. Keep an eye on the meter and you will see that if the voltage appears, it is a DC voltage and it will answer your question. Hope it helps.
