Excellent question, all electrical stays the same (lights, windshield wipers, etc) since we are keeping the regular 12 volt car battery (all electric cars retain a standard 12 volt car battery believe it or not), and we will be using a Converter instead of an alternator to charge it, the Converter steps down the 360 volts DC down to 12
we will use either a Volvo or some other brand of electric power steering pump, this is a very common swap, and keep our current stock steering box
we will use an electric vacuum pump to provide vacuum to our stock brake booster
the challenge will be the heater as it needs to be replaced with an electric element but there are a couple options for that as well
and what's a "radio"? lOl
