QUICK HELP! Splice into Accessory Wire's

I have my console apart and ready to splice my Sirius radio power cable into my Accessory power switch under my console. I see a white, red, and black wire. Which ones do I need to splice into?? Please Help quick! Thanks so much.

So the one in the arm rest? Im almost 100% positive both are. Its been awhile since ive had it apart. Unhook it and hook teh wire into it and see if it powers up. Other wise hook into he spot on the back of the drivers side fuse panel

Whoops...sorry about that fellas. I tried and failed this afternoon. The wire for the sirius S50 is a vehicle adapter taht plugs into the cigarette lighter port for power. Apparently when I cut it it messed something up. I cant just cut it and put it to power. So now i need to order another power adapter and plug it into the console adapter. I was just trying to hardwire it but i guess there is no way around it.
