Default What are my positive speaker wires?

I am about to install new rear deck 6x9 speakers in to my 1994 Honda Accord LX, and want to know which wire is the positive wire on both the left and the right. Every where i look, it is just talking about the color codes for the Stereo harness and not the speaker wire itself. Or does the radio harness color codes go all the way throughout the car?

(Yes, 94 LX originally had 6.5 inches, but I was going through stuff at the wrecking yard and realized another 94 Accord, believe it was EX, had 6x9 factory brakets. So i now have 6x9 brackets in the rear deck of my LX )

Normally the striped wire is the negative and the solid wire is the positive.

I'll admit I have not looked at my Accord fleets speaker wires, however, usually the pair going to a speaker is the same wire pair from the head unit. Thus if the left rear speaker pair is Orange for positive and Yellow for negative at the head unit, that will be the same pair coloring at the left rear speaker itself. Wires are color coded for ease of identification.
