>Howdy, One of the MOPAR mags had an article on how to build a solid state power supply that was suitable for 60's and early 70's cars. Standard Radio Shack stuff, real simple. I think it might have been Mopar Action, I will have to check my old stacks of magazines. All the MOPARs I am familiar with use a variable resister in series with the instrument light circuit to vary the intensity.
