The VR on a T4 Bus is mounted in a fairly boxed-in location that gets
little if any airflow -- RH side of the engine compartment on the gas
tank firewall -- and doesn't seem to suffer from charging problems or
unusually short lifespan.
Lengthening the wiring harness to the VR would be easy enough with a bit
of solder and heat shrink.
