Default do it yourself hack job

i just bought a 2002 camaro off of a lot and i gotta admit this car is pretty awesome. now just alittle bit ago one of the speakers went out on it ,i knew prior that it had aftermarket speakers and the kid who owned it before me had a system in it . well my brother in law installs those professionally and told me this kid did it himself ....that made me worry alittle . so i took the speaker out of the panel in the back and the kid had completely severed the stock wire to wrap around the crappy speaker wire he used for the system that is no longer in the car . im not great with car audio but having some background in electronics thats something you just dont do , so now im out one speaker and have to pay my bro in law to fix this mess lol but the speakers do sound great . the radio is getting replaced next week , its an old jvc that i swear is haunted

You could rerun a wire from the stereo to that speaker if the stock wiring is not usible. It's very easy and would be a lot easier to do when you replace the stereo since you're doing that.
