wire colours might not match, but with some investigation ytou should be able to figure out what wire colours are going to what speaker.
power & earth are all you need for the power plug, the other wires dont do anything on modern stereos. your mk2 probably wont have an ignition live feed either, only the very last MK2s god a key-in-ignition live feed from the ign switch.
