I saw the other post and printed the wiring diagram(thanks) Definitely using the Diode method and NOT going to use the socket & Bulb setup. What I was leaning towards before your reply to my post was the Hopkins kit #56304 (E-trailer had installation video specific to my 14' CRV) and the Roadmaster #88400 Brake-lite relay
Larry,
I don't fault you for leaning towards using a factory setup harness like the Hopkins. As stated, I did my own diode thing for years and years but, we recently purchased a 2015 Jeep JKUR and I found out there was a Hopkins harness for those. So, I looked into it. Well, I was impressed and, purchased one. It's been in there for almost a year now and, couldn't be happier. But, up until this recent discovery, I set up my own diode system on all my toads, just like what you see in the diagram.
The main difference in the diagram and what I've done for many, is the Tail Light Converter is not used in many of the toads I've done. It's only needed when the toad has AMBER turn signals.
