Default Stereo wiring help...confused by what I'm seeing

Hey All,

Finally getting around to some cosmetic stuff, want to install this new deck I bought. There was no stereo installed when I got the car. Before getting started, I checked what wires I have coming out of the stereo area. I've got the usual speaker wires I need, however I'm confused when it comes to the power.

Please see the attached pic. I have a brown (confirmed ground), yellow/red (confirmed 12V hot all times), and a red/blue. The red/blue I was hoping would be my ACC 12V, however it doesn't seem to be at all (measured with my meter). I checked my other wiring, but I don't have any other "switch" power it looks like.

What would you guys recommend? Is there somewhere safe to get a 12V ACC wire in that area?

Thanks!

My apologies. I've got an 84 944 N/A. I can't seem to find any wiring diagram with these colors for the stereo power setup.
