The yellow line is the video wire. The red line on the yellow is to carry a signal to the radio for when the vehicle is in reverse, the BRZ should have no need for this. Ignore it. (Well, first find the signal check in the radio settings that shows "yes" or "no" for reverse, parking brake, etc. and confirm it switches between "yes" and "no" when shifting in and out of reverse; then, ignore the red line on the yellow plug).

I just installed it today, thanks to both of you for your helpful comments.

Thanks for this, it helped a lot. I ended up doing it but connecting the reverse (purple) wire to the red wire from the camera
PLUS a jumper to the other reverse power wire (orange and white).
