It is, but one of David Jones' objectives is to do the installation without 
one.  
I had a Motorola AM-FM radio in my BJ8 back in '65, powered by a polarity 
inverter.  Every time the brake lights came on, there was a momentary loss of 
power to the radio.  Probably a wrong spec. unit or faulty installation.  
That was before I got into electronics, so I didn't try to diagnose it.  
Always wondered what could cause such a bizarre symptom, though (and still 
do).
