yellow should be 12v constant power. there is another power wire there but it is accessory power. Might be red, but doubt it, its probably 2 tone.

and the 2nd orange wire should be the illumination wire for the light in the original radio. Most aftermarket radios will not use that. So just tape it up and leave it alone.
