Yes, I am too cheap to buy a harness adapter

There is a big yellow wire - I am guessing that must be the 12v power.

Does anyone have a list of what each color wire goes to?

Yellow is accesory power, red is constant, black is ground, purple is right rear, green is left rear, gray is right front, white is left front. That's all from memory, but I think it's right.
