It won't matter which is "positive" and which is "negative" where an AC waveform is concerned (audio is AC), all you have to worry about is that you observe the same polarity throughout if you don't want one speaker cancelling out another.

eg, if you decide the solid colour is positive where the speaker is concrned, you then observe the same wiring throughout.

The solid is the positive
The one with a trace colour is the return  :y

As Martian says, it matters not, as long as you are consistent :y

True, but in factory fitted situations, the wire with the trace is Negative.  :y
