I just bought a 91 F-150, it came without a stereo and the connector has
been cut off and I am stuck with a bunch of wires and no idea which they are
for so I can't install a stereo. Any help with the colors and what they are
for would be a great help.

Actually, the colors are a universal standard IIRC. Here's a cut and paste
from a google search:

FORD

P o w e r
Memory (+12v Constant) Green Yellow
Ignition (+12v Switched) Yellow/Black
Ground (-) Black or Fat Red
Illumination Orange
Dimmer Orange/White
Power Antenna Blue (varies greatly)
S p e a k e r s
Right Front (+) White/Green
Right Front (-) Green/Orange
Left Front (+) Orange/Green
Left Front (-) Light Blue
Right Rear (+) Pink/Blue
Right Rear (-) Green/orange
Left Rear (+) Pink/green
Left Rear (-) Pink/Blue

Hope that helps

I agree with CJB, that's the same as in my '92 Bronco.
