WK Indicators done!

FYI to all VT/VX owners:

– you’ll need the plug from VY/VZ/WK match the indicators themselves

– the tabs that hold the indicator to the guard won’t go anywhere near holding it in place. Simple fix is double-sided tape or super glue etc

Couple of mini projects, nothing major – but will be fun to learn some new things.

VX SS Wheels I plan to clean up & paint as a back up set of wheels in case I get defected for whitewalls.

VY/VZ indicator/wiper stalks
