Switchable reverse lights?
I'm still gonna' try the diode first. I've used 'em before, and with the little current needed for the cam, I think it will work, and will just need a switch and one wire. With the diode inline between the b/u wire, and cam, a power line downstream of the diode, "shouldn't" feed back thru the diode, so the b/u lights won't come on when I switch the cam on manually. A diode only passes current thru' in one direction, so, I can't help but think it'll work fine But, if it doesn't work, y'all gave me a backup!! thanks!!

It's aftermarket.
