Default Double Din Help!

I have installed a Pioneer AVIC 5000NEX in my 1999 SC300. Everything works except it won't let me past the License agreement on the NAV system. Pioneer said to hook up the parking brake wire but I can't find the wire for the positive side of the parking brake switch. What color is it and where do I tap in? Thanks

Here are a few threads I followed in figuring out my stereo stuff. You may (or may not) find your answer in one of the wiring or harness diagrams:

there is just 1 wire from the headunit for the parking brake and you either connect it to the parking brake switch or just to get it working you can just connect it to ground (side of the stereo or any metal its touching).
