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.

True, but in factory fitted situations, the wire with the trace is Negative.  Thumbs Up!
