[QUOTE="andrewblackwell, post: 646864, member: 32647"] I do appreciate the explanations & all this well meant advice, thanks. Having seen a lot of local modern VWs running their indicators as US running lights, & presumably not getting done by the Pollis, I thought it might be a feature to have this old VW doing its US thing, I would act daft if pulled, it being an import. So far they’ve not reacted to our lack of front reg plate, which I carry in the back ‘cause it’s only just rattled off. (Also a great way to go for free in ANPR car parks) Today I wired up those removed US indicator units with two wires onto a battery & was surprised how well the 21w indicator shows up when activated against the 5w filament. One 5w filament was goosed so I’ll buy new bulbs. I’d like them wired so they are lit independent of the headlamps, maybe on a separate switch. [/QUOTE]
