I want to replace my M15 from 6V to 12V. Is it possible to use the same cable-profile? Thanks in advance for your tips. Bruce

Yes, you can use the same wiring harness, but may have to switch the ammeter wires and coil wires to the opposite posts if you change from positive ground to negative ground.
I love my 6 volt systems and never understood why people insist on changing.
BTW, my 6 volt system runs my GPS just fine, and will also charge cell phones, if that's the reason you are thinking of changing.

6v wires are heavier gauge than 12v. When doing that conversion the harness is like overkill.Brad Johnson,

I have a 6 volt 54 with a 12 volt 63 V8 reduced to 6 volt , it starts up smartly and runs perfect. I changed the 12 volt condenser to 6 volt. I am very happy with the 6 volt system and would not consider 12 volts. However it may be good for you.
