Hi guys, its me again. SOrry, but I think I have one last question for you. I am pretty sure that my car has (-) door triggers, but I am wondering if I need to diode isolate it. I saw the handy diagram on the forum, and it doesnt look hard at all to do, but I was wondering if it is necessary for my application. Also, where do you go to buy diodes? Radio Shack? Also, are there any differences in them, i.e. any particular diode type to ask for, or are they all the same? Thanks guys.

The GREEN/ black is located in the lower drivers kick panel. It catches the drivers door only. The light blue is located in the lower passenger kick panel, and catches the passenger door(s). Tap both wires and diode isolate each.------------- Jeff

1 amp diodes are good for alarm installs, and radio shack has them for about 2 bucks for a bunch of them. just keep an eye on how you aim your diode.
