Default Dash Speaker Wiring

Does anyone know the wire colors for the three dash speakers?
I just got a pair of Infinity Kappas that I'm anxious to install.

Hey thanks Win!

That is exactly opposite of the way I wired them! I was going on the hunch that the right rear side door speakers were the same colors as the right dash, and from there I was inferring the left sides, but oh well. I think 5 min and I can have it reversed.

Hey Win got everything installed and the Infinity Kappas fit great in the left and right positions even though Crutchfield says they don't. The center channel speaker is a different story. Because the Kappas have a "crossover dongle" there is no where to store it in the middle. The sides have a big hole inwhich to drop the dongle. But in the middle there is a shallow flexible plate. I wonder what's under there? If it's just dead space I was thinking of cutting a small hole and dropping it down in there. Any thoughts? Also I had some egg crate acoustical foam that I cut into a couple small squares and squeezed into the cavity underneath the speakers on the sides. Is this a bad idea? I don't want to restrict any airflow or anything, but man it makes the speakers sound so crisp!
