I glanced through this and didn't see any mention of the charge/discharge meter. With the polarity reversed the charge gauge will read backwards. So when the needle shows discharge the car is really charging, unless they switch the two wires on the back of the gauge.

I switched the polarity on my '55 so I could install a Aurora radio conversion kit in the stock radio. I did this so I could have AM/FM and Bluetooth.
