One area of concern would certainly be the original light switch: Does it work at all? Is it even there? Is it compatible with the new 12V system? The toggle switch may be in there for a reason. The 12V lights may be brighter than the 6V bulbs they replaced drawing more current and fry the dimmer resistance (if there is one)or it may already be fried. I went to toggle and relay on my 140 when I put Piper Cub landing light bulbs in my 140. Make sure you know what bulbs you have in there. The rest should be easy. Obviously you value an original tractor; if you so prefer, go for it. I like to modify my 1966 tractor so I can count on it to snowplow in a blizzard. If I had a '49, I might feel differently.
