Don't leave your blinkers on when you shut off the car. Is that cool or what?
Your fog lights will only come on when the headlights (low beam) are on. When you switch to high beams they flick off.

Well, I finally fixed my lights. I installed the Sucro relay kit and then bent the pins in the light stalk and they work great. I want to reinstall the steering wheel, and am wondering if anyone knows what the recommended torque is for a 1978 911 steering wheel bolt.

2. Fit the washer and tighten the retaining nut on earlier models (those with a horn button) to a torque 58 lb ft or, on later models (those with a horn bar), to 54lb ft. Check that the flasher return striker operates correctly.

The above is from my "autobooks" for 1974 to 1977. hope this helps.

That's great information, thanks. My car is a 1978, but unless I hear otherwise, I will presume that 54 lb ft is pretty close.
