andy r : This has been what I do when I make the changes. - replace battey - neg. ground - 12v coil with internal resistor - 12v regulator as close to identical to the old one as possible. - 12 light bulbs - change wires from side to side on back of amp gauge if it was a positive ground sys. before you started. I have run this way on my tractors for quite a few years. But they do not parade around. I use these as they were intended in a hay operation. Have not so much as had to charge a battery once since I converted. To me it's nice to leave to original look and fit of the original gen and have the convince of 12v. The purpose of the post was to call out the nonfactual part of the "6v cannot be converted to 12v" because it can and work just fine.
This was just a tip to help those who do like the original look and want to use this direction.
