    In case you couldn't translate to english on the schematic, you will need to wire the relays in to function as the brake light cancellor on the side that is flashing in order to use a single bulb system. I think you might also be able to get some sort of timer that cancels the function after a short time so you aren't always driving around with one blinking. Or use a three position momentary switch that you have to hold.

    You can eliminate the relays if you just buy a 3 pole double throw toggle switch. This keeps the various circuits separate. This is what Ron Francis sold.
