wire colors

Quick question, on a 2014 Civic ex without nav, does anyone know the color of the 12v switched wire in the radio wire harness? Trying to do an amp install and dont want to have to check every wire individually if someone already knows which one it is.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Accy+ = Purple in connector A #24, but test it to make sure before you do anything to it.
