    For 1 piece purchased it is necessary to count double in shipping costs/ tax, so the account is quickly done!

    The alternator you are considering is 1 wire and internally regulated, so you don't need an external regulator.

    With a One Wire Alternator the regulator is built in, you DO NOT need an external regulator that also eliminates some external wire clutter the hook up with a 100 Amp is a 6 gauge cable from the alternator to the Positive battery post only.

    Some single wire PowerMaster Alternators also have a post on the back to use for the i-did-it factory light by attaching it to the original wiring at the regulator.

    Sorry to back to this post but yes sometimes you do! Some of us know typical word differences but “wire beam” was a new one for me. Good luck with your “foreign car”…
