    Glad to see you are getting rid of the yellow paint. Hope to see the turquoise back.

    My first time watching your channel. You two are quite a pair! I have 4 VW's including a 71 Weekender, a 71 Ghia, 73 Super and a 74 Bug. I do all my own work and will enjoy your work on the single cab. It looks pretty good from here, as single cabs go. Usually they are all rust!

    The light is an indicator for emergency flasher. The switch below it is wipers.

    Wow, nice find, great shape! Doesn't look like any sketchy rust repairs so will be "easy" fix. There are 16mm+/- holes at the top of the A pillars behind the headliner. Dome light wire will be in the left side hole. Lamp is for hazard lights and flashes opposite the signal light in dash. Hazard switch is far right. Switch below lamp is the wipers. TheSamba has owner manuals in the technical section. You may have a reserve. It would be below the seat by the heater control knob. You could also look at the bottom of tank.
    60mph is suggested top speed if the trans is stock. You will not want to go faster anyway :) 45-55 mph is a nice fun drive. Above they get less fun.

    4 way indicator light and the 4 way switch is to the right of the steering wheel with the headlight switch. I would suggest not putting gauges in the fresh air box on the roof. If you drive in any rain the fresh air box fills with water. Just an FYI….

    Awesome man! So glad you got this. That light looks like some kind of emergency flasher light? Not sure what kind of emergency though. haha. I know I saw something about that on The Samba at some point. I could also very well be wrong too. lol Great single cab though - Looking forward to some updates on her!
