How to remove front turn signals?
Reply Quote
I know how to take off the the lights but I also want to take off the metal peice that holds them. Is this possible? I attached a picture of what i want to take off and circled it.

The stud is welded to the fork ears. So if you want to take the light off then take the bolt out and unhook the wires. They have to come from the headlight and go through the whole.

So the part that I circle is actually welded on? Guess that means that is staying on, ha.

The section that you circled is welded on. You can take the whole ear off but then you will have to find a way to hold your headlight. Or swap on similar ones that don't have turn signal lights on them.
