That was not what I had in mind, so I ended up taking it off. Don't know if it's the way my car is wired, but in the iJDMtoy page it doesn't mention anything about the rear tail lights and the license plates lights turning on.
Nope thats the way it will work without the diode. When the headlights are on it will use the running light circuit to power the leds. If you turn on the leds only without the diode it will also feed to rest of the running light on the same circuit. Putting the diode on the power line to the leds will prevent the electricity from feeding out, only in, if that makes sense. .
