turn signal size

[rusty boltz]

Can someone please give me the diameter of the turn signal lenses on a 78 or 79 GS1000. neither of my bikes came with them. I have some 3" round LED lights that I am wondering if they will fit the stock turn signal buckets. And if they do fit i will need to buy some if any one has any laying around. Thanks

anyone? I just need to know what the diameter of the lens is so I know whether to buy stock turn signals or figure out another way to mount my signals. Thanks

I suspect they're all the same, but don't know ...

A 1981 GS650GL has 3" round lights

thanks! I'll assume the diameter is the same for a 79. I just dont have anything to measure since I have no turn signals at all. I'll order some stock ones and if I can get the led's to fit I'll post up the results. These are just 2.75" round trailer marker lights with 5 bright LED's, the resistor is already built in. thanks again I've been waiting for someone to answer so I can order already.

If they are marker lights, they might not be bright enough for turn signals.

They will most likely do the job at night, but most of us do most of our riding during the day.

You make a good point, but I have been thinking about this for awhile. I use these all the time at my job and they are adequate (not great) for day riding and at night they shine like crazy. Anyone got a pair of used signals with or without lenses laying around they'd want to sell? I can trade stuff too.
