I'll take a picture of mine when I get home tonight, but I think you are just missing the flasher.

The blue photoshopped part in your first picture says "just use a standard turn signal flasher".
A standard turn signal flasher is exactly what the one in my 73 looks like.

The purpose of the flasher is to make the alarm go on and off when it's tripped.

Originals were Robins Egg blue - plastic - with a plastic fitting on the top to snap into firewall of some cars ( not Vettes ) - no real markings - impossible to find.
