Sony CD Help!!!!

[Alfanige]

Right - I feel a bit of a t1t. I bought a Sony CDX-4180R of ebay. All looks to be tickety boo except one thing....no idea how to wire the damn thing up.

Does anyone know how I can find out which wire is meant to do what or has someone here got experience of Sony head units?

I reckon black - earth
Yellow - Perm live
Red - switched live
Orange - ?
Blue - ?

I will be able to work out the speaker wires through trial and error

Cheers
