Let there be light..
I am putting lights on my 100 and had a few hopefully simple questions...
What gauge wire should it be, I thought 14 GA but it looked smaller than what as on it. Also, was the original kit wire yellow? What size fuse is used for the lights? And finally... I have a spring assist on the left side; it appears to be in the way of properly mounting the Grote light, any suggestions or pictures keeping it as "original" as possible? Thanks,

I'm not sure if the wire was yellow, but I think that's correct. As for 14g, that's fine. Your lamps are 35w each, or 3 amps each at 12v. A total of 6 amps. 14g wire is good for up to 15 amps. Lengths are short enough that voltage drop is not a concern, so you are fine with the 14g wire.
not sure about the grote light mounting...

Thanks for the reply.
I went with the 14g and "winged it" on mounting the rear light, used a fender mounting bolt on the vertical part to attach the bracket. Looks like it belongs there and as long as it gets a good ground, I should be good to go. I need to pick up a connector on the way home and there will be light! Thanks,

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
