All you need is a 3 dollar buzzer from radio shack, some extra wire and two
spade terminals.   Attach one side of the buzzer (or chimes) to chassis
earth (regardless of Pos or Neg Gnd) and the other two the center pin of the
flasher relay (small 3 prong can).  Presto you get a buzz, buzz, buzz or
chime, chime, chime.

Cheap as belly lint.

Complements on the Holidays!

Gentlemen:
                       I have been watching your discussions with interest
over the last month .  Clearly, there is a lot of wisdom and good advice
floating in the ether -- and especially lots of opinions.  I have a
question.
Two years ago I drove with an old english mate from Wiltshire down to
Goodwood
for the Goodwood Revival (if you do nothing else watching motorsport do
yourself a favor and go to this event).  On the way down I noticed that his
MGA indicators, the switch for which is in the middle fo the dash, made a
clicking sound.  When asked he advised that the audible clickers were a MOT
legal requirement in UK.  I regularly drive my beautiful red BN7 along,
basking in the sound of the exhaust note and honks of appreciative
motorists.
Unfortunately,  this is often not admiration at all but is to tell me my
indicators have been blinking for the last three miles.  Clearly I need
help,
dotage is catch up.  Does anyone know of a source for such an audio device?
(Not the wife).  Otherwise I will have to go back to the homeland next year
for another Goodwood and pick one up there  -- tough.

Thanks
MG with an AH

PS:  An immaculate 100S was due to be raced at Goodwood by Sterling Moss,
in
the event it was raced my another driver.  Reg SMO 323 (?) with racing
number
7 as befits Sterling Moss.
