When we installed the # RM-154 diode kit on a 2019 Chevy Colorado, we tied the diodes into the top bulb which provides the taillamp, turn signal and brake lamp function. For greater visibility, you could run a jumper to the lower bulb if you wish, but it isn't necessary.
I've linked a to an installation video for a different kit, but the diodes install in the same manner. This video shows the wiring connections in greater detail.
