I just got a car radio from a friend but I'm a bit troubled with the cabling ;) . Our car (a Ford Fiesta) doesn't have a connector like on the radio, in fact, the only thing we have are 4 stripped cables for the speakers and two cables for the power.
The radio has like 14 cables and 2 jacks for the speakers... How do I know which cables I have to connect ? Four of the cables on the radio are labled, ACC, Mute, B Remote and Backup.

Anybody who can help me ?

Well, my first suggestion is for you to visit the radio manufacturer's website and try to get a wiring diagram.
You also may be able to find a wiring diagram for your vehicle online as well but it is more likely that you'll need an auto repair manual for your model.
Do an online search of your public library, they may have such a manual at one of the branches near you.

As for what you actually have on the radio:
The two jacks are either for output to an amplifier or input from a cd-changer.
8 wires for speakers: (Possibly green/green and green/white etc...)
(+) and (-) for Right Rear
(+) and (-) for Left Rear
(+) and (-) for Right Front
(+) and (-) for Left Front
ACC may be your positive power lead from your accessory switch on the key switch or could be power out to an accessory like a cd-changer.
Mute is probably for a cell phone option which mutes the radio if the phone rings.
B Remote is difficult to say what it does but it could be for power antaneas
And Backup may be for the clock which is a "HOT ALWAYS" connection to the electrical system.

I guess maybe this has given you more questions than answers. ;)
