While it may work fine, and it doesn=E2=80=99t matter if the battery chargi=
ng device is a generator or alternator, LED bulbs do care about polarity, s=
o if you have a negative ground Healey, check with the bulb manufacturer to=
 see if the bulb you need/want is available for negative ground polarity.
