[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 4172772, member: 550915"] Or you could wire a 12v relay and not worry about current. Relays are cheap. You could use the diode array but I would still couple it all with relays. Depending on the vehicle, the door lights are activated by the computer not a direct switch. Apply 12v where it wasn't meant to be and the computer gets a bit upset. A diode could keep it from being a problem but so could a relay and the relay will take care of any current issues as well.
