Anybody in the US install anything in these sockets? I looked here and 1 guy did that involved way to much work and made it way to complicated. Do we have the wiring there? Is there a Euro version we can just plug in like on my Hyosung? See pic for what I am talking about.

I've seen a few guys glass Pia 4" rounds into the front cowl too. There is no wireing in there so it has to be run from the OEM harness. You could ask a body shop or boat yard glass guy for a quote. Bring the Pict, and your scoot. I'd say 350.00, and you buy the lamps is fair

Is there a hole with notches in that assembly for the socket? If there's one look for a socket that will fit. If there's none you can drill a hole that will fit snugly a rubber bulb socket for a T10 bulb. Tap the wires to your signal lights or park lights whichever you prefer. You can use a T10 LED or just ordinary ones.

Thanks guys for the ideas.

I should have said I am not buying any incandescent bulbs any more.

I decided to pull the bulb sockets out of the US "lollipop" turn signals and install them in the lower turn signal holes. I found some LED bulbs on Amazon.

Most of us do the same. The stalk lights are just plain ugly.

I have a set of actual light assemblies that came with the spare parts box when I got my second B&W. I'd be happy to ship them to the highest bidder, or if you care to pay for shipping. I'm not going to use them, I'm OK with the "lollipops". They look like they are a perfect fit, they have wiring and I even think they have bulbs. If anyone's interested, I can go dig them up (they're still in the cellophane bags).

Thanks to KymcoBW250Fan I now have the proper light assembly. Pictures to follow soon.

Quick while it's still light out!!

My dealer did the modification for the previous owner of my bike. He simply ran long wires down from the turn signal assemblies in the handlebars to the turn signal pods in the lower body. If you use the European-spec lower wattage bulbs, the turn signals will flash too quickly. You can safely use the SAE higher wattage bulbs to return blinking rate to normal.
-
Thanks for the advice, I am installing LED bulbs, I am running LED through out the bike already.
-
I have installed the proper signal assemblies with amber LED lights and it works awesome.
