My 41 Pickup i'm going 12V neg ground .Must I reverse the terminal input to the Fuel,Oil, Temp, gages. I'm also using a step down 12 to 6V reducer from Vintage Auto Garage. Regards Tom

I would sy yes to switching the terminals. The senders supply the grounds. The amp guage has a wire running thrue a loop or terminals that will also have to be switched but it does not have to be 6 volts, if the wiring is in good shape just change the the bulbs to 12v because it will draw less current.

The terminal input stays the same. Your voltage drop takes care of everything. Your gauges have two posts. One for hot and one for the sender. Nothing changes when you switch to negative ground.
