Re: Hazard Switch

I'll weigh in a second time.  I looked at the wiring diagrams and see that 
they only had 5 wires up to late 71 models and had 6 wires after that.  My 
72 definitely has 6 mini-spade connectors, so it could be that your 5 spade 
was either for a pre-late 71 model  -- or possibly may have lost one of the 
connectors?  In any case, it doesn't look like either of your switches will 
work w/o some modifications.

My '76 Midget uses the switch with the round pins
with individual round (kinda oval, actually), red
push-on connectors on the wires.
