Derek - glad you found it interesting. I am currently trying to sort out the diff locks and having a lot of fun. I can't get my front diff indicator to flash due to low vacuum, but it works if I suck the pipe to the switch. Wiring is very simple, there is aslo a tiny PCB which provides the flashing. If you ever need any part numbers or parts let me know as my local dealer lets me look at his microfiche! If you are interested I could copy the bits in the owner's handbook about the use and operation of the front diff locks and get it to you by some means. Cheers!
