I am converting my Bugeye to negative earth. I have a couple instructions on 
how to do it, but I have a question. BTW - I have a new stock wiring harness 
in the car. 
There is a fat brown wire connected to the current negative battery terminal 
wire (It shows in the Haynes schmatic). It goes to the control box (voltage 
regulator) spade A, then to the fuse box (as a Brown/Green wire), then to the 
horn. Does this brown wire stay on the same battery terminal wire (which now 
becomes the positive battery terminal wire)? Or does it get switched to the 
new negative terminal wire? 
Also, does anyone have a schematic of the guts of the control box, or know 
where I can find one? I'd love to know how the voltage regulator is wired and 
what all the spade connections mean. 
Thanks
