As mentioned above, much better off to use a sealed, weatherproof inline fuse in the wire that feeds the headlight switch off of the generator. Hiding in the frame rail seems smart. If you have a short (repro brake light switch on a '28'/29 is common problem) it will kill the lights but not the ignition.
