The Diode trio can be bought at many places. Here is one location."Anyone know the correct name/part number for this?
Also, I noticed in the wiring diagram Warthog posted that it shows a "supressor" between the Pos and Neg Distribution Rails. A while back I found a broken up, burnt-looking bit of wire and plastic wrapped in electrical tape there and removed it, thinking it was the previous owners hacked-up, failed attempt at something. I'm now thinking it was factory.
Anyone know the purpose of this piece and whether or not it is critical?

The suppressor that you found between the 24v Positive Terminal and the Negative terminal is a factory installation. It is used for the 24v Military Radios to help stop electrical noise. It is not required unless you have the radio pack installed.
