Head Unit install

Well, I finally sacked up. I decided to fiberglass an aftermarket deck where the ashtray is. I'm just about done, I have it all fiberglasses, I still need to do a little bondo-ing, then painting next weekend. All I need to know is where to hook my constant power, switched power, and illumination up to. What color wires should I be looking for? I don't want to spend the money on the wiring harness, which is close to $50 because it has to go from the dash to the back where the RCU is. And I'm not even sure if that includes the constant/switched power, and the illumination. Hopefully you guys can help me out. I'll post some pictures tomorrow if I can get it hooked up and working. Thanks guys.

HAHA!! I got it to work! It sounds LOADS better than that stock crap! I still have some bondo-ing, sanding, and painting to do. But as soon as that's done, I will post pictures. Tomorrow I'm going to get my cams welded, so I won't be able to make any more progress tomorrow. But I plan to have it done on Sunday. Maybe before if I find the time. Thanks to the guys on here who gave me the idea.

How did you wire everything?

I hooked the constant power wire up to the cigarette lighter, the light blue and white wire. I hooked the switched power up to the radio memory fuse, in the fuse box. It worked out great. It still isn't finished yet. Pictures will come later this weekend.
