Upgraded turn signals on my -09 K1300s
Ordered some chinese LED turn signals a few weeks ago, got the parts yesterday and got them installed today. Bought everything from aliexpress and was able to source adapters that had the BMW connector, this made the whole thing plug and play. took about 20 min mounting them and that included taking off the old parts.
My bike had clear lenses and in sunlight they were not that bright. Total cost incl shipping for the upgrade was 33$, really pleased with the result.
Some pics and a link to a video fo comparison.

I have tested a number of different LED bulbs from ebay for the front tunrsignals but nothing has been bright enough. I ordered a set from aliexpress and they are superb! Extremely bright and no one can miss i signal now, unless they are blind.
They are built entirely from aluminum and have heatsink in between the panels. No problem with canbus either.
I can recommend these and i have ordered an extra set just to have on hand for the future.

I use these LED bulbs with these lenses.
