Where does the other end of that wire go to?

There is a red wire on the camera end that I tapped into the positive wire at the turn signal light socket.

The turn signal or the reverse light?

Okay, then you need that wire connected to your head unit. You can just run your own wire. Your last camera just had it integrated into the harness.

Ahh ok. I guess that isn't a big deal since I have to run the new cord for the camera anyway.

Yeah. The last camera you had, just had the wire integrated into the harness. It's convenient if the camera doesn't break.

$500 later, I have working blinkers. There was apparently a short in the rear turn signals somewhere. I have a feeling it has something to do with the accident I was in last year where my whole rear end had to be rebuilt.

You should go back to the shop that did the repair and bring them the bill. At the very least, contact your insurance company and let them know about it and see if they can help you work with the shop that did the repairs.

I don't have any recommendations. I always have my favorite brands. Alpine and Polk Audio are two companies that I would listen to if you have time to check them out.

I've run polk components in both my '98 accord and in my '07 accord. Very good stuff for a reasonable price.

I've also ran Polk 3-way speakers in my old vehicle and then installed/transferred the same speakers into my Accord. Been running strong and still clear for almost 10 years now. I plan to go with Polk again, or at least listen to Alpine as Tim suggested

I do like Alpine, the Alpine amp has been working great since I switched to it. I'll pull the old speaker to make sure that its the speaker's problem, or if its something else (water?) before putting money on a replacement.
