gray (+) speaker
Blue(Power Antenna)..... N/A

Since the old radio was spliced when I removed it, how do I go about connecting this radio so that all 4 speakers work.
Looks like you have a 2-channel head unit. To make all four speakers work, you'll need to wire them in parallel or in series.
You can wire them in parallel ONLY if you're using the factory speakers, and if they're 10-ohm speakers. It's very common in GM vehicles to have 10-ohm speakers. You can either measure the resistance through the speaker wires with a multimeter, or look at the speaker magnets in the trunk---the impedance may be printed there.
To wire in parallel, connect the radio's white wire to BOTH the tan and the brown speaker wires. Connect the white/black radio wire to the gray and yellow speaker wires. Connect the gray radio wire to the light green and dark blue speaker wires, and connect the gray/black radio wire to the dark green and light blue speaker wires.
If you have 4-ohm or after-market speakers, or if you're not sure of the impedance, then use the following method:
Connect the white wire from the radio to the tan wire in the vehicle. Connect the light gray vehicle wire to the brown vehicle speaker wire. Connect the yellow vehicle speaker wire to the white/black head unit wire.
Connect the gray radio wire to the light green vehicle wire. Connect the dark green vehicle wire to the dark blue vehicle wire. Connect the light blue vehicle wire to the gray/black radio wire. (Note that your listed GM wire colors are incorrect; light green is positive and dark green is negative for the right front speaker).
What you're doing is wiring each side in series: positive radio output to front positive speaker wire, front negative speaker wire to rear positive speaker wire, rear negative speaker wire to radio negative speaker output.
