Ok, cousin has a Mk1 Nova. He's just bought a Clarion DBR 3675 and I need to install it for him. I've done my previous cars/trucks without problems (especially ones with ISO that just plugs in). The HU came boxed, with a decent cradle but sadly no manual.

The Nova has no ISO. I know which wires go to the speakers as I can just follow them. Comming out of the empty HU space:
Thick Brown: Guessing this is Earth
Black with an inline fuse. Think this is Ignition live?
Red and think this is 12v battery?

Comming out of the Clarion I have.
2x Blue for remote.
Black which is labelled Earth
Red: +12v Ignition
Yellow: +12v Memory
And Orange, with no label.

Now I am guessing black Clarion Earth goes to brown Nova earth. And that red Clarion Ignition goes to black Nova Ign.

But what about the Yellow 12v memory, and what is the Orange wire?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers :P

orange is electric aerial so dont bother with that and yellow should go to the permanent power off of the nova which is red i think

u hit the nail on the head!
that is the correct way to wire it up and yes the orange will either b electric arieal or a phone mute!
