I don't think I was DPO'ed. At least, not on this.
Don't forget that it is a '69 mk3. That's when they moved the tach and
speedo from the center of the dash to the left (LHD cars), right behind the
steering wheel.
The turn signal is located to the leftmost of the dash and is green. While
the four-way flasher indicator is red and in the left-center (between the
fuel gauge and the oil pressure gauge).
Thanks for your help.

again!!!)
