Default Cosworth stereo loom help please

Hi guys,

Was wondering if anyone had a wiring diagram so I can hook my aftermarket head unit into the saph please?

I've got a right abortion of wires that have been hacked by a previous owner.

I want to hardwire the connections. Not interested in another ISO cable as the harness is already butchered :/..

the ones on the left are the speaker wires so they are easy

the ones on the right are the power wires and, from memory you will have your brown earth, yellow ignition live, red/white permanent live, grey/yellow for illumination and another for the remote output

that's 4 wires taken care of but i think there are either 6 or 7 in total on that plug

Managed to get the power connected however when i turn the ignition off it resets itself.

Also the speakers are REALLY quiet? I have to crank the volume upto maximum to get faint decibels lol
