R6 reg/rec swap

Hey boys!

Have a toasted reg/rec plug on my nc35 and suspect that this has been the cause of my issues. So I thought I may as well change the reg/rec while I'm at it. Bought a r6 reg/rec from ebay (99-02 5 pin model) and also new connectors/spades/wires.

So I'm ready to set this all up and do the swap but I'm a bit confused here. I have been doing some research on the forums and read that the top two wires need to be switched around for the r6 reg/rec and some didn't say it was necessary. Can anyone confirm which one is the proper way? Much rather ask then fuck anything up :oops:

1.
[+RED] [-GREEN]
[YELLOW][YELLOW][YELLOW]

2.
[-GREEN] [+RED]
[YELLOW][YELLOW][YELLOW]

So is it 1 or 2?

Much appreciated.

If you wire it backwards you will blow the main fuse. Switch it round and you should be fine.
