Check out Dan Master's site - http://www.advanceautowire.com They have
schematics available there. Also, look at Litezupp. https://litezupp.com
- they address some of the issues with LED's including dashboard indicators.
Polarity, color and how the bulb is oriented are issues that are addressed.

Subject: [TR] generator vs alternator
Recently picked up a 59 TR3 which has an alternator conversion. Since the
engine was separate, I have no idea how well the generator works or if at
all. It is still in the engine compartment, wires connected (unlike the
engine). how can I test it?
Given the current availability of LED lights, and since I have no interest
in installing a radio, should I try to keep the current setup (little joke
there) or go back to a generator?
Are there wiring diagrams for this car with a generator?
