So just bought a C6 and was doing some car work in the trunk and came across this wired up on the passenger side in the trunk. I have no idea what it is and was hoping someone could maybe help shed some light. The wires say HBR Duro 200.
well, right now, it is nothing....how are we to know what it formerly was used for???
That's not helpful at all why even say that it's not a stupid question try taking a closer picture of the black plastic end where in the back of the car is it left or right side
Do you have a nav unit either stock or aftermarket? That looks like the lock out bypass I put on nav units so you can plug in the address or what not while driving.

Follow the wires further back, could be a bypass for a rear view camera as well.

A........BK................Ground
B........L-BU.............Stop lamp supply voltage
C........L-GN.............Backup lamp supply voltage
D........YE................Left rear stop/turn lamp supply voltage
E........BN................Park lamp supply voltage
F........TN................Rear compartment lock actuator unlock
G........D-GN............Right rear stop/turn lamp supply voltage
So looks like it a flasher for the brake lights to flash when the brake pedal is held down, instead of being solid light with the brakes are pushed instead.
As for the location, if it was installed down line and just on the third stop light wire only, then a flasher for just the third brake light in the spoiler instead.
As for why the stop light(s) are constant light now, the ground has been unplugged and why it not flashing the brake light(s) instead.
My vote, plug the ground back in to the scotch lock connector and see which rear brake lights will flash when the brake pedal is pushed down with the car in run mode, and see if it tickles your fancy or not.
If it doesn't tickle your fancy, then I would remove the barrel connectors on the blue wire both side, slip a piece of heat shrink over one of the wires, and solder the Blue wires back together, then slip the heat shrink over the solder joint and heat it up to shrink the shrink tube for a permanent fix to the wires and remove it out of play.
