Anyone fitted the side panel logo roundel running lights / indicators?
If so, how did you get one removing and modifying the BMW logo roundel and fitting the lights?
Do they work well, and where did you source the lights?

Re: Side roundel running lights / indicators
My bike has them, but they were already fitted when I bought it.
I can say that they work well. Mine show a white light all the time I'm riding, and turn to flashing orange with the indicators. The offside one also stays on for 30 seconds when I park. Presumably the previous owner needed illumination to exit his garage at night.

Re: Side roundel running lights / indicators
I’m looking at them at the moment.
Motorworks and Sportouring do them around the same price bracket, approx £120, with a possibility of Amazon and Aliexpress cheaper.

Re: Side roundel running lights / indicators
I bought a set from motorworks
Fitting is fairly easy if you follow the instructions! I never
I didn't like the idea of drilling holes in the side panel behind the emblem for the wiring so I ended up removing all the silver trim and feeding the wiring through there and through a hole already in the fairing.
It's was a lot of work and fiddly but I am happy with the result

Re: Side roundel running lights / indicators
It's probably wired to the wiring that goes to the auxiliary socket on the right side of the bike
