    I thought I'd resurrect this thread. I'm looking to use this switch just to trigger two individual lights. Would would removing the diode allow me to trigger two separate lights from the b
    green and orange wires?

    Thanks

    Yes, but they sell the same switch without the camera logo.

    Awesome thanks!! I already have two off the camera buttons. A magic eraser and a black Posca marker my kids have did the trick in removing/covering all markings!

    P.S. Don't go over 3 amps to the added circuits. I'd only use the switches to supply fused trigger (as in control to relay) power.

    Since the grey wire is (-) could I just connect it to the black ground wire and run just a single wire to chassis ground? @caribe makaira
    Thank you for your help!!!

    I did mine on a 17 OR with an aftermarket Pro Grill. I cut a thick piece of Kydex to fit around the letters in the middle and used the camera that wasavailabel from Anytime Backup cameras website with the kit.

    One thing I did different was install my switch in the overhead console, so i had to extend a lot of the wiring.
    I've since undid that kit when i got an aftermarket stereo that had a front camera input. Still using the camera though
