Does the bulb fittings have to be changed in order to run 12 volt bulbs or head lights? Does anybody have a chart for 6v to 12v bulbs and headlights?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

What about headlights? I also seen where the fittings take both 6 and 12 volt bulbs so im good there.

#6014 (50amp low/60amp hi). The 12v halogen bulb is #6024.
