Default cigarette lighter wiring question

I am hooking up an aux iphone cable so that it will charge as well as play my tunes. I want to hook the power supply to the wires going to the cigarette lighter, but there are four wires. Anyone know which colors are ground and power?

Default Pos & Neg at cig lighter

Use Volt meter cheap at Radio shack read ground first w/meter on ohms if it shows resistance that is ground turn key on read other wires with black probe on the body metal ( the ground ) and meter on volts when you find 12 volts you have your 12 v feed and use the body ground
good luck
