I converted a car by replacing the cutout with an RB106 (using only the cut out part of the unit - it's not hard to work out), winding the 3rd brush right back, replacing the bulbs & battery and that was it. Worked fine. It didn't have a wiper motor and horn was higher! You don't get the benefits of electronically controlling the dynamo but it still charged ok. If you do this always have a spare set of starter brushes with you - a 6v starter on 12v eats brushes (1930 type starter)
