Replacement Head Unit Wiring Issue

Hey all,

I just installed a new Head Unit to replace the stock cassette player in my 2000 Insight. I encountered an issue with locating the ignition wire, though... and currently only have the constant power hooked-up. It seems I can't find an accurate wiring diagram for this car!

This is a link to a picture of the factory wiring harness that I removed:

I even purchased a wiring diagram from an online company which gave erroneous info, stating that "IGNITION_WIRE = BLK/YEL" which isn't an option.

Can someone please advise me as to which of these is the ignition wire?

Thanks.
