[QUOTE="peterg, post: 9427, member: 446"] Howdy Charlie, I attach via a tapered hard plastic shaft inserted in the oil orifice of the shaft with a rather firm sleeve of rubber to enable slight adjustment of the wheel to achieve zero degree reference points for calculating. Lights? Primary question is (appearance of originality) and secondary whether you've got a US (sealed beam) or ROW model (bulb type). On the former, nothing looks like the original GE 3044 sealed beam originally fitted....nor would you particular care to fit one again as they pull big amps for their dismal output. I'd look at a 6V halogen non sealed beam replacement and I've had good luck with one in the past from Vech at [URL="http://benchmarkworks.com/"]Bench Mark Works[/URL]. On the bulb type, a chap advertises a very reasonably priced 36/36W(?) halogen retrofit for your standard 24/36W but he's located in England. As I was delighted at how bright the standard one is when installed in a reflector in reasonably good shape on a plain fluted lense, haven't bothered to followup on that. Last thing. If you live in a DRL state and want to spare your speedo and tailight from constant useage, if you've got the original type 4 position Miller switch, you can run headlight only off your "CH" terminal.
