Hey John, you'd want the part # BLU56HR for a diode wiring kit that fits the 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 with the animated taillights. I also attached a link on this page to a PDF that details how they install on the new style of taillights the truck has for you to check out as well.

Hey John, did the diode wiring kit work out for your Sierra's taillights? I'm asking because it could give others confidence when setting up their towing system.
