If you place the flasher inbetween the battery and the toggle switch you'll
constantly hear it flashing-meaning the clicking sound. Definetly use the
inline fuse, I'd think you would want to place the flasher after the toggle
switch so it would only click when you applied power to the left or right
side through the center post of the switch by activating the switch. You
might have to use two flashers for this but I think some come with 3
terminal and one being source and the other being normally open contact on
one and normally closed contact on the other. Flasher are what, about a
couple bucks so a second one aint gonna break ya. Don't forget to wire in
the instrument panel lights as well..... Have ya considered the brake
circuit into this a well, cuz the brake/turn signal are of course the same
filament in the bulb???
Here is a link below to a wiring diagram of the brake and turn signal
circuit, i belive it is fairly generic and may not directly, meaning wire
colors and such but it may help ya out some, I think its for a 56-59.... If
you're using seperate lights for brakes don't worry about it....
Of course all normal disclaimer fits in here.... wayne
