[Vwdiesel] MK4 Hazard switch/turn signal issues

[Tony and Lillie]

On the MK4's, the hazzard switches are interchangable between the New 
Beetles and the MK4 Golf/Jetta. Just the snap on face is different. So, when 
shopping, find the cheaper one, and use your old piece. It simply snaps in 
place. Done this at least 100 times on customer cars.
