Hi guys. First ever post..and I mean first ever. Never posted on any other page asking for help so this is new to me. I've looked all over google, YouTube, this page and other forums and my gf's polo has at this point...beat me!  

 

 Fitted all the wires for a amp running a sub, leaving the stock speakers alone.  I know the amp works, as does the sub and stereo.    Here's the problem.  

 

The stereo has its own little diagram showing both the (pins?) connectors and which connectors hold which wires.  One holds the front and back speakers, the other is the battery, ground, remote etc.   The wires on the diagram don't match the stock wiring in her polo.  1 to 8, 8 and 7 are thick brown and thicker red so I know they are ground and battery. This matches the stereo diamgram.  Past that though (1 to 6) I'm unsure and I've heard all sorts of stories of people blowing electrics and causing big problems I can't afford to fix.

 

 Can ANYONE point me in the direction of a colour diagram of the wire set up or/and a listing of which standard wires refer to which operation.  I think one will be constant power? Maybe the brown and red? (Stereo turns on without the ignition no problem, always has done and it's a after market stereo that's worked fine in there for ages). There's 2 more wires than on the diagram and not all the wires are in the same place as they are on the diagram. 

 

NOW, she's not bothered if the stereo light dims with the dash control so I'm not too worried about the lumi wire,  all we need to know is how to get the damn amp on when the stereo is turned on.  Remote wire is already to be attached, I just need to know which are safe to TRY and which are a no no and obviously a diagram or someone KNOWING would be so much safer for her baby.   

 

Sorry for the long post.  Just wanted to give as much info as I could and I didn't want to waste people's time.   I can supply pictures, the set up, everything. Just need someone's time.  Thanks you bunch of chatty legends
