wiring woes

[zap26]

My car is not a kit but I am doing what I believe to be a similar wiring task, I have a 73 super beetle and I am using a watson street works wiring kit. Unfortunately the instructions are next to horrid which leaves me with several questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I believe that many kits are probably subject to similar wiring situations. The kit was made by American Auto wire but they as it seems regret making the kit for Watson's possibly due to the fact that Watson's misrepresented the kit when sold but I digress.
I was informed that I would not require turn signal relays, this on a whole sounds a bit odd but could be true. I was told that the turn signal relay was built into the fuse panel a representative of one company. I still have the email, does that sound right?
Also the instructions do not show any grounds for the turn signals as well as the rear light units at all. The rear lights make up reverse, brake, running, and rear turn signals in one unit. I am a novice at best so this task was probably not a great idea to overtake but I am so far along that I do not think turning back is an option.
Any help would be awesome, you can respond here or even to my email Zap26@aol.com
Thanks

If by relay you mean flasher module, yes, these are normally on the fuse panel. I'm not familiar with the Beatle - if it's not there it may be on an auxilary relay / fuse panel somewhere.

As for not requiring them - I suppose you might not need them if the lights you are using have built in flash modules. I believe some LED based lights have this.

Earthing is usually done via the body / chassis. Take a wire from the light cluster's earth terminal and attach to the body at a convinient point.

Don't the rear indicators switch off the rear lamps and use the same bulb when they flash when on an American car, or am I barking up the wrong tree and much behind the times..? if so..
