245 lights dim and Pulse 200 1979

Hey Team-

I have a 1979 245.

Since Since I have owned her (10 Years now), the lights have pulsed. Not a blinking, but a noticeable pulse from bright to not as bright.

you can notice it also in the interior light display and the radio face plate.

The speed of idle makes no difference - its always pulsing.

Has anyone experienced this? and if so, what fixed it? I was thinking a new alternator with a higher amperage? converting from an external voltage regulator to internal?

Thanks
