Not sure if anyone has used these, thought I'd share this with you. I've been having problems with getting reliable latching relays to work
with steering wheel mommentary buttons for the indicators in the end I found these from the states They are solid state and seem to work impeccably.
they can also be set up in various ways either + or - input polarity for switching, timed 1-100 seconds or 0-1 seconds or latching and either normaly
open or normally closed

I've currently got one per indicator, set to run for twenty seconds or another press of the mommentary button whatever comes sooner. The best
thing is the price I paid approximately £24 including postage for the pair from fleabay) image below of them fitted in the nose of my project (to the
left of the brake fluid reservior)
This is very useful, thanks! I was trying to work out how I'd use my indicators using PICs or a 555 IC for variable indicator times, this is far
simpler
Looking back at your posts, I saw you were looking for some cable to go to the steering wheel. RS components seem to be the go to place for this kind
of stuff:

Hope that helps

Edited to add: they also do 15 core cable

Just curious - can you cancel indicators before 20 secs is up ? Just thinking if you made a mistake and indicated wrong way.

I think the earthing through the steering wheel should work, i guess it depends on your setup.
Thanks for the comment on the Indy! Although that was pre crash facelift, and its not looking so sharp now
