We did the same thing to one of my dad's SD's.
I'm installing an 80Amp Bosch AL124X from a '90 Saab 900S to replace the dead one in my '85SD. The AL124X only has two posts vs the 3 spade plug found stock. How did you hook yours up and is everything working as stock?

Lot's of reading here (that mostly discusses the 115Amp AL129X which has 2 posts AND a spade) did not reveal the secret, which is the only thing keeping me from getting it done.

I suspect the two bigger wires that each went to a spade in the stock plug go to the big post on the 80Amp Bosch AL124X while the remaining single smaller wire goes to the smaller post? Just want to make sure and not fry stuff at inaugural turn of key.
