Default Wiring in a New Stereo, 94 Rover Metro

GAAAH! I've bought an Aiwa stereo from Argos and I'm trying to fit it
into a 1994 Rover Metro Tahiti, and I'm having problems with the
wiring.

I've done the speaker ISO connection fine, but the power one has oddly
coloured wires, and I can't work out what they all do?

The new connector has:

black: ground
blue: power antenna
yellow: backup battery
red: power

the Metro one has:

green: ?
black: ?
purple: ?
red/black: ?

I can't work out what needs to line up with what, help! I can't find
an explanation of this on the Net anywhere

Ian.

Thanks! I've managed to get it fettled with that information, and it's
all installed and working

Although there's so little room in a Metro for the radio I had to
remove the air vent so I could stick me hand in and pull the plugs to
the side as it slid back, but I managed.

Thanks again,

Ian
