Default trun signal sockets

the lectric limited harness for my 70 has plugs for the turn lamps on both sides that look like this "l=" rather than the twist in type that the side marker lights have. the grille housing has the twist in type hole. also, on the drivers side where the cable passes thru the tunnel of the inner fender, the extension wires that go to that side turn lamp are only 2 inches long. the pass side length is ok. i just ran the harness last night and haven't had a chance to call lectric yet. anybody with similar experiences?

I just rebuilt/upgraded my front wiring harness. There are two extension harnesses that are about 18" long with the front socket on one end and that three-prong plug on the other. I don't know why GM designed it that way, there seems to be no reason for putting a plug there and it had to jack up the cost of the harness.
