Hey...if the diode kit is not to your liking...get the magnetic lights! Maybe 25-30 bucks, if that. A flat 4 connector.
I have the diodes on my 2007 Chevvy HHR, and have the magnetic lights on my 2011 Ranger pickup. Available at any auto parts store.
Both work just fine. When i had the baseplate installed on the Ranger, I wanted the diodes on also...but the RV mechanic said not to. Claimed that on some of the new vehicles, the diodes could give a false "check engine" light. (Alarm) So I took his advise.
