One option is to leave the regulator in place plugs and all, gutting it of internal connections. Looks stock, easy to go back to stock for a future owner ( with a new reg), takes less work and doesn't leave empty holes in the firewall.

I'm choosing an alternator with an internal regulator for the Midget.   I remember somewhere an article for putting an alternator in earlier generator cars.  I'm replacing an externally regulated unit with an internally regulated one.  My question is what has been done with the wires for the external regulator under the hood by others doing this swap?
