Problem with parking light/turn signal

I have finally got the lights working on my 68 911t after many hours of cleaning fuses and tracking down bad grounds but one problem still persists and I can't figure it out...

On my left front parking and turn signal lights I have an small issue. When I put on the hazards, the left front is noticeably dimmer than the right, and if you look closely you can see the filament of the parking light coming on ever so dimly each time the signal light comes on. If I have the parking lights on and turn on the hazards on, you can see the parking light filament dim each time the hazard light filament come on.

This issue is isolated to the left front corner of the car. This is obviously some form of poor connection somewhere but I think I have checked everything and can't find any issues with a multimeter.

I can't find a spade ground at the front of the car. I was having issues with the rears and made a new ground for the spade connection at the left rear tail light and it solves everything that was wrong with the back, I just can't find a spade connector or a ground at the front of the car.
