Looks like I finally located that mysterious PO of my IIa....

F*&! the future owner! Did the PO do you any favors.....NO! Consider it
your duty to:
a. Do modifications in such a manner as to give the impression you and 5
monkeys got liquored up and took blunt instruments to the truck.
b. Alter virtually every circuit to the extent that it's easier to get a
new wiring harness than correct your "improvements". Oh, and use loads of
wire nuts like you'd find in house wiring.
c. Never replace panels, B-O-N-D-O!

Subject: LRO: result of the polarity switch
Just a followup: the truck was set up as positive ground before, despite
unusual instrument wiring/notatings. Now it's negative. It was an easy
switch as I suspected - but I appreciate the information that allowed me to
confirm the polarity of all the bits before I started changing the wiring.
I didn't want to end up damaging something due to ignorance, although my
electrical knowledge is good enough to tell which is the ground strap and
read a circuit diagram :)
In my order to RN today, I included a NEGATIVE EARTH 12V plate. I'm going
to rivet that beside the battery tray for some future owner.
