Default Great MOD: Convenience Indicators

Most modern cars come with "Convenience Indicator" feature: a single short tap on the indicator stalk makes the indicators flash 3 times and then automatically stop. Great for lane changes on motorways. I find myself usually blinking just once when I change lane and this kit will help me to improve my behaviour!



Someone has fitted the kit in A4 B5: http://www.youtube.com/embed/SfzH057npic

VAG supplies two OEM kits to retrofit this feature for older cars:

* 000 998 229 -- universal wiring harness
* 000 998 229 A -- vehicle specific kit for Passat B5

I understand all kits are based on essentially the same relay, just different harness.

I've purchased the "000 998 229" kit here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3603732700...ht_2381wt_1220

Perhaps direct purchase from TPS or VW dealership will come cheaper.

Will do a writeup for D2 when the kit arrives.
