[QUOTE="Snake, post: 546464, member: 97"] It makes sense, and I understood what you were saying before. I haven't blown a fuse yet, but I also installed two diodes when I did this mod several years ago. The point of installing diodes in this instance is to prevent what might happen. Cheap insurance. I don't know what other electrical components might be impacted because I don't have a wiring schematic in front of me. You won't hurt anything by installing the diodes, but it may be possible to damage something by not installing them. FWIW, I didn't tie the extra lights directly into my reverse light wire. I used the reverse light wire to trigger a relay. The upfitter switch also triggers the same relay using the same trigger wire. In other words, a relay whose trigger wire is shared by the upfitter switch and the reverse light wire. Hopefully that made sense. [/QUOTE]
