Hi Robert,
Diodes like the Roadmaster Single Park Light Diode # RM-690 you were looking at simply get spliced inline with whichever light function you're wanting to prevent feedback on using the included spade terminal connectors. You'll want to place the diodes close to the light to limit the amount of room for feedback.
