Answer
The cd players typically have a sheet with them explaining all of the wires if they are purchased new.
Here is a link to a similar model clarion which shows the wire colors and purposes

typically yellow goes to constant posative
red goes to switched posative
Black goes to ground
then there are 4 pairs of matching colors usually grey, brown, green, purple these are your speaker wires.
Then there's usually a blue wire used to turn on remote amplifiers.

I recomend you use a meter to identify the matching wires inside the vehicle.
Please feel free to ask if you need more help.
