Re: 1988 90q front turn signal assembly question

[Richard Beels <beels@technologist.com>]

I checked my car and the fiche.  There are no other parts.  The headlight
holder has a two-part tab (like for tines) and the side marker light has
one tab that slides in between the other tabs (or vice versa with respect
to which part has two tabs and which part has the single tab).
