Some amount of criticism arises out of the fact that the wires leading to the dynamo look a rather poor job, being unprotected and finished with tape and string. It is suggested that in conjunction with an enclosed terminal arrangement on the dynamo the wires could be led from the conduit to the machine through a flexible brass tubing similar to that used for the wires to the switchbox.

The wires to the ignition distributor on the Chrysler are enclosed in a flexible metallic tube and the L.T. terminal is also enclosed.
