Almost certainly 3-wire cylindrical on a Mk1 unless it has been replaced 
with a later 2-wire cube or modern electronic.  The third wire on the 
original is not an earth like it is on modern electronic flashers, but is 
used to flash the tell-tales on the dash in conjunction with a flasher 
switch that has an additional set of contacts.  You can use a more recent 
2-pin, or a modern electronic 3-pin, by joining the light-green/yellow and 
light-green/blue wires to the green/red and green/white wires at the bullets 
by the steering column, although the original 3-pin surprisingly doesn't 
seem to be any more expensive than the alternatives.
