    I'm positive, I always remembered that positive and negative up front are opposite from the rear. I always remembered the rear positives by the "b" blue and brown are positive, like "be positive". I know it is corny as hell but it helped. yellow and light blue are negatives in the rear. therefore darks are positive in the rear and darks are negative in the front. but I could never remember which was considered dark out of the gray and tan wires so I always did my "redneck phase test" which I line out for you in the PM I sent.

    2002 black Yukon SLT (the skinny sister)

    Thanks so much for all the help. I'm going to do the battery test when I get home just to be sure.

    Thanks again!

    I wouldn't do that unless it's about a 3v battery. I've heard of speakers getting busted by too much voltage. Another way to see is to pull your deck out and see which wire it is by using your aftermarket radio harness as a cross reference. But I am 100% positive about green being negative and light green being positive

    Checked the old speakers with the wires still attached. Light green is definatley positive. Got everything in there correct and it sounds great now!

    Thanks for all the help guys!
