porsche 914 gauge wiring questions

[volkstony]

hi guys i am new to the forum. i have a 1973 vw beetle std. i have installed the 914 gauges in my dash i pretty much got everything wired up correctly. my only question is how do i make a single turn signal gauge light wire and convert it to the setup the 914 has with the separate lights which i like better. any help will be great i have looked at the wiring diagrams for both the bug and 914 and i just cannot seem to find the answer. thanks in advance for any help

The VW turn signal relay has only one indicator output that feeds a single light. Unless you can slave a 914 relay in, you will have to split the output from the VW relay to power both indicator lights at the same time. That is what I did with mine.

or take a feed direct from the indicator bulb circuit for each side...

yeah i had thought of going off turn signals themselves but thought the 914 relay would be ready if i used the 914 relay do you know how to wire it with the 1973 std wire harness. thanks guys
