Default The turn sig is a two filament bulb. One for parking/marker, the other for the turn signal.

Three wires, one plug...

Default City light wiring

The wiring is not in the headlight connection, you are going to wire it to there from the turn signal. The brown is ground. I had two black with white stripe, one is turn signal and one is parking. Test with parking light on to find it. Splice a length of wire into that line to the fourth connector on headlight (Pull back the rubber boot, thread through boot into connector crimp in a connector, slide back the boot.). The bulb I used for the city light was a two wire, blue 12v, 20 watt auto bulb. (It's just the glass bulb with two wires out the bottom and wrapped back upward on the glass).

In the photo in the link, the wire coming out of the headlight connection goes to a splice in the separate turn signal connection.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/9080/msgs/105417.phtml">link to previous post</a></li></ul>
