BMW electrical connectors

[MilwDave]

I am looking to swap out the turn signals and I would prefer not to cut the connectors off of the OEM signals.
Does anyone know of a source for the electrical connectors used by BMW?

BMW lists these lights but I don’t believe they are available yet. They look like Kellermann Atto lights but they would be plug-n-play.

I'm with MD.I don't like the idea of cutting the factory wiring harness.

I am currently messaging with Hans over at LMC about light options. I’ll relay what I hear from him.

due to vibrations i prefer to solder all my moto connections unless there is a need to unplug them. in that case i would use a deutsch connector. cheap plug connectors like these are a last resort. YMMV

edit: for front turn signals for example i would never expect to go back. so i would have no problem with a soldered connection. that said, in the very unlikely scenario of going back i would have no problem snipping and re l connecting the originals.

the wires will of course terminate at the lights (although i have not yet disassembled mine to see how). So you either have to physically remove them from the lamps then modify the connectors to match your new lamps or cut them 2 inches back and do the same thing.

i expect the other end of the lamp wires are part of a larger pin connector plug with pins you will not be able to connect to. But again i am guessing.

Bar End Signal Project- Done!

Hey so, I developed a slightly pathological dislike of the stock front turn signals. They never seemed to align perfectly; dangling there like a pair of vestigial appendages and, to make matters more unseemly, the left one often loosened on it's perch. I embarked on a mission to install bar end...
