The easiest way to cut the oval hole for the Rubber Grommet, #a70gb, in my opinion, would be to use a Light Mounting Bracket for 6-1/2 inch Oval Trailer Lights, BK70BB, as a template and then use a hole saw the correct size to cut a hole on each…

The Hopkins #48955 taillight diode kit can indeed be used to drive the running /brake lights on your Captiva like a three function lamp, without using the amber bulb for a turn signal. See the diagram I provided, and I'll also send you a copy as…

When a vehicle is being towed it cannot operate its own lights. The diodes are a gateway with 2 inputs and one output. One input is the regular wiring on the vehicle. The other input is from the RV. Since vehicles being flat towed will not have…
