Yellow/brown connector.

It is block A in the diagram below when viewed from back of quadlock connector.

A = beige/brown/yellow connector
B = blue connector
C = green connector
E = grey connector

Power/GND in lower left.

Best thing to do here is buy a quadlock extension, ISO converter or T-harness.
This way to don't butcher the factory wiring if you want to go back to stock.

This will give you regular ISO sockets which have standard wiring.

Thank you so much really appreciate this just bought the adapater are you able to describe in beginner language what I need to do. I’ve managed obviously to take out the original harness and I know I need to connect a few wires but really do not want to get this wrong :))

Please note this is an example (G 7.5), the wire colors may not match the diagrams in the post above (P 6C).

Absoloute lifesaver thank you! How would you suggest me wire the loc then? I was on the impression of just stripping a bit of wire and then wrapping the loc wire around the speaker bare wire and taping it up or heat shrinking

Maybe the following link will help you connect the wires to your LOC.

It is a clean and very reliable method of connecting wires widely used in original automotive harnesses. IMHO crimping with this type of terminals is the best method for joining automotive wires, much better than soldering cables ❌, or using other types of terminals.
