My brother in the US is working on an 82 MK1 VW Golf Cabrio (Rabbit Convertible), and had a question on wiring for the front bumper parking/turn indicator light.
He has a wire with three parts:
* A brown wire, which has a metal clip at the end and we believe goes to ground.
* A grey wire
* A black wire (we believe–it is a bit faded).
We're guessing the grey and black wires go to the turn indicator and the other the parking light. Does anyone know which might go where?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

Wiring Diagrams 12 76-80 wiring diagrams for 1981 Cabriolet Convertible, and Jetta (except California).
The Major Differences are that the Rabbits from 79-84 were built in the US, whereas the Cabriolets, Golf/Rabbit Convertibles were all made in Germany, so you have to be aware of the different wiring diagrams from a USA built Rabbit and a Golf or Convertible German Built model.
