[T2] turn signal cancellation

[Erik Burtis]

Hi Chris,
If you look down at the steering wheel, it looks like my cancelling ring is
at 1400 on the clock. A little hard to tell from the pic (at work, no bus
to go see).  Check out the 3rd pic in this post (with the red arrow), it's
the best I can do for the moment.  Hope it helps.
