Default keyed ignition wiring?

ok i know there are three wires for the key system that you would tap into for say push button ignition (im not doing that) the yellow is the starter and there is a red and a pink wire but i dont know which one is constant power and hot in fun wire.

im guessing red is hot all time
and pink is hot with key on but i need that confirmed before i solder my last wire for my car project

just in case anyone ever needs this

there are 3 wires under the steering colum yellow red pink and these wires are your ignition wires
red is hot all the time
pink is hot when the key is on (switched ignition)
yellow is the starter wire
