Default Stereo issue

I bought a new pioneer stereo to put in my 2004 1500, I have most of the wiring wired and wired right but the yellow wire from the stereo. I know there's supposed to be a constant 12v Hot wire connected to it but I can't find it. Any help is appreciated

The yellow wire is the constant 12 volts. The red wire is the switched 12 volts.

My problem is I can't find the red wire. So is there a different color or something

It might be orange or pink. You can always use any wire that is switched. You can find one with a meter.
