And you get the 6 Pole to 7 Pole cable that connects those two together.The diodes that are connected into your tail-lamp circuit ensures that the signals coming from your RV don't back-feed into you vehicle's circuitry; it's only sent straight to the bulbs.We'll begin our installation by removing both our driver's and passenger's side tail lamp assemblies. To remove those, you're going to want to pop out the little plastic covers exposing the screws. We're just going to use a flat-plated screwdriver to do this.We'll then remove both bolts with a T15 Torx Socket. We can then pull our tail lamp assembly towards the rear to remove it. more
