Default Which wire to tap into?

Do you guys know which wire to tap into on the power antenna (Trans AM) for the amp remote wire? The connector has three wires in & out. There is a black wire both in and out which I assume is the ground but the other 4 wires are green, orange, pink and some other color maybe blue.

There are only three wires for the power antenna - orange, pink, and black. Orange is constant (battery) power, pink is antenna control from the head unit, and black is ground. You can use the pink wire as remote for your amp because it is powered whenever the head unit is on regardless of music source selected (on the factory head unit - not necessarily true with an aftermarket head unit).
