On my MkIII (70) there is a very thin black wire that I found unattached in
the area near the column mounted ignition switch. Since black usually
represents a ground, I assumed that it my have come off a screw that was
attached to the underside of the dash in the same area but that attached
nothing to the dash. I'm not sure of this next part, but ISTR that it was
for the underdash light that comes on when the door is opened. Hope this
helps. Cheers
Keith
