I bought a backup camera and it needs to be connected to the reverse light wire.
Camera's power wire is tied w/ video output cable so it can't be connected to wires in the trunk.

My older cars had it in the kick panel but i don't know if this is same for the 8th gen accords. Does anyone know where the find it near steering wheel or under the dash?

Thanks for your time.

Did you look in the Factory Facts forum? I found the install manual posted in there for the back up camera. Chances are the install manual shows you where the reverse light wire is. http://www.driveaccord.net/forums/showthread.php?t=14719

Thanks but it doesn't show the location of wire. It connects directly to camera harness behind the glovebox...

Does anyone else know?

Just tie into the factory harness if it's there. Find which wire is hot when the car is put into reverse and there you go.
