which way to face the diode?

Where'd you get this one?  Haha. 

Thanks again....I'll redo that diode.

Can I use a connector rather than soldering?  Diode in one end, wire in the other?

CpGoose, remember when I ask you what wire you hooks up to the 550esp to the trunk, I hooked up the door trigger and jumpered the trunk wire, the alarm didn't have a seperate wire to connect to the trunk, so thats what I did, I was wondering if you did the same, so when I open the the door, it shows that the trunk is open, and vice versa,   I need to now if its giving  you problems because it might give me problems later,  I tried jumpering the hood pin wire to the trunk but something went wrong and it didn't act right, so I disconnected it, where can I hook up the trunk wire?

hey guys....can I just ask one more question?   I'm still not sure if I need 1 diode or 2?  Do I only need one for the alarm's trunk wire.....or do I need 2 diodes.....1 for the car's door wire and 1 for the car's trunk wire?  Ahhh.....better explained with a picture (#1 or #2)?  Do you think this could be my problem?

Use either one of the diagrams

I'm still a little confused. 

Diagram A is telling me that if I want to have multiple trigger wires from the car work on one alarm input wire, to diode isolate each one to pin 85.

Diagram B is telling me that if I don't want to use a relay (but accomplish the same thing), to double diode isolate each wire?

I just can't tell if one of those is what was in my diagram.   I guess not because I didn't double isolate any of them.  Am I on the right track?

Can you repost that PDF file from two posts back....I just tried to click on it,  and I guess it's gone?
