I bought a used scooter and I believe that they changed or added the front blinkers. One side got smashed so I'm looking for a new cover for the left side. The right side has imprints in it (see photo). Any idea where I can get this part?

Another photo of the blinkers.
This is how the front blinkers look

This is a good opportunity to buy a wiring harness from Scooterwest to delete both blinkers (if local laws allow of course).
Would be cheaper too.....

Nope, those are factory. Available from your local Dealer or online vendor. Part number 6391015 for left side assembly.

Or if you are DIY just rewire them, reroute and cut and splice the wires to the housings in the leg shield.

But if you insist on having the US blinkers, and don't want to fork out an arm and a leg for one, Harley Davidson used this same assembly on some of the sportsters. It was also on my Moto Guzzi, and I ended up getting it from HD because I didn't want to pay Piaggio for gold plating without actually getting the part gold plated. It was like $9 vs $70, absolutely crazy. And the part is made in Italy. Walk it in to a HD dealer, say it's for a sportster, but you don't know the year, and they will likely track it down for you. If you say it's for a Vespa, they will likely shrug and tell you to go to the Vespa dealer.

Sorry, slight threadjack: can you elaborate on this a bit? I was looking at LED "switchback" kits but this sounds like an elegant solution. Can the white running lights be maintained and the amber signal lights added with this approach? I would have purchased the kit on Amazon and followed Mitch's
excellent demo from but that kit is NLA.

edit: I see scooterwest's kit for this (non-LED for $70) and it's apparently using the amber lights for running lights, which is non-ideal IMO but possibly required for this?

With the cut and splice you lose the running lights. Will reuse the existing sockets and swap out the bulbs for amber.

On mine I untaped the harness and rerouted the existing wires down to the legshield. Had plenty of length, didn't need to add wire. Dead end the running light wires with heatshrink and tape it back up.
