    Big 3, AGM battery & high output alt....Lights still dim

    The alt, big 3 & battery are what I meant by supporting mod but you are correct. I can't remember what brand of loc they used. I just remember it being a higher end unit vs the little cheapie white one I'd had in my previous car. What you said makes perfect sense. I would have never thought...
