Re: Indicators

I've fitted a 10 ohm resistor in the lamp unit which seems to work. They do get quite hot so I don't know how long they'll last. Time will tell.

Re: Indicator Switch

Beginning to suspect it's not original 2cv. It's attached by a collar, there are two blanks on the front so I'm hoping they hide the screws to get the cover off.
