Default which pink wire?

1992 project car with radio and speakers missing on purchase, don't yet know if tuner still in passenger dash

The text I have found online tells me the wire to activate the factory antenna is pink, I have two questions

1 - does it need 12 volts or ground applied to work

2 - both the head unit and tuner (in passenger dash) have a pink, will either work? Head unit plug/wire easier to reach

thank you

Update: The pink wire you want is in the far side passenger dash. The connector used to plug into the tuner on side closest to door. Could not hardly reach it to connect under the dash but pulling the glove box let me pull it straight up and get plenty of slack there

ok so 12 volts to dark green on head unit plug to activate tuner to send 12v over pink to antenna. I can also just go to the pink wire on the tunner module. Probably best to connect at tuner wire anyway and not depend on that part to keep working since the rest of the OEM Bose system is AWOL
