Default different radio

i wasnt sure if this would go here or aftermarket or maintenance but my truck doesnt have a radio and i took out the cb that came with it cuz the cb antennas were starting to unravel

anyway i have a mercury tracer and ive taken the radio out thinking both fords will have the same color coding but no, so im wondering if anyone knows the color coding for the radio on an 88 f150 xlt lariat? i could do it the un lazy way and trace the wires on both cars but i figuered id check and see if anyone knew
