Can i do a volt a drop to the switch ? 12V will be easier on the old 6V switch, because it will only have to switch half the current (except for the Volt-a-Drop'd wiper motor) > Alos the turn signal indicator, what about that will the increased voltage hurt > it? The switch will be fine, but you must replace the flasher relay. 12V will destroy the 6V relay. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
