On the later column shift 3 speeds, there's a switch with a toggle bar that
gets whacked closed by the relay rod mounting tab. Obviously that no worky
on the 4 speed. In that case, I recommend a toggle switch in or under the
dash ;) Shift with your right hand while you hit the lights with your left.
Use an SPDT with momentary one direction and you can flash Morse code at
following traffic 8P
