Default 85 speaker wiring

I decided to change out the stereo system in my 85 w Bose. Years ago I had a stereo shop install a Pioneer but the display stopped working after about a year. Today I decided to put in a new head unit that I bought, I pulled the Pioneer out and I wish those years ago I had installed it instead of the stereo shop. All wires are cut and crimped and nothing marked. I know the power, illumination, etc but I don’t know what colors go to which speakers. Any help out there would be apreciated

If they did it right they should have ran new wires or put a speaker level converter in. If it's still just installed into the factory lines they are:

LH Door: Tan and Gray
RH Door: LT Green and DK Green
Left Rear: Yellow and Brown
Right Rear: DK Blue and Light Blue

Attached is the schematic of the radio:

Trying the pic again. Not sure why it's uploading so bad as it doesn't look that bad on my phone...
