I don't know all of them, but the DIN standard makes the brown wire the
power ground. In most systems, red is ignition hot and yellow is
battery+, but I'm not certain this one would follow that convention, it
could easily be reversed. Black is usually the speaker common. Beyond
these guesses, I'm at a loss.

Volks,
I’ve acquired an AM-FM-Cassette radio, probably 1970s vintage, with a 9-pin
connector pigtail, an antenna plug, and one stray violet wire.
Who knows the harness color coding for such a radio – possibly aftermarket --
with red “VOLKSWAGEN” on the faceplate?
The nine plug contacts are wired from the radio as follows:
Org Red Brn
Blu Yel Grn
Wht Blk Gry Vio
Can somebody tell me what wire is which? They disappear into the box and I’m
hesitant to open it. The usual assortment includes (in no particular order)
+power, -ground, +ignpow, instru-lts, RF spkr, LF spkr, RR spkr, LR spkr, with
the speakers using a common ground.
