Like this from their ad
>High quality fully made in Taiwan, NOT China.

Beware of dissing our chinese overloads- they hold lots of debt.

Nope not LED... but I figure if I've got to mod them to fit the curve anyhow I might convert to LED anyhow (and if it proves a challenge I'll be cursing your name!) Not 100% sure about those measurements, as they do seem a little smaller than that - happy to check if you want.

For reference, here's the "insides":

LOL - Don't curse my name- I'm trying to find out if what flushmount LED's can be bought off the shelf and just stuck on! - Oh and if there IS cursing going on- ppl might be cursing you with your spring starting NOW and our riding season coming to a close soon!

When I do buy my 'off the shelf solution' I'll do the running light conversion: https://cbrforum.com/forum/how-mecha...-inputs-84998/ - I've seen some pretty kewl pix on this site I KNOW somebody on here knows which flushmount fits an F3!

They advertised outer dimensions of 3.65" L x 2" W (9.3 x 5.1cm) That does leave lots of room inside to convert it to LED. I do have the tiny LED flushmounts I 'bought' for the CBR600F4 should easily fit inside at: 5.4cm L x 3.25cm W

Amazon.com: Honda CBR 600 F4i Flush Mount LED Clear Turn Signals: Automotive

BTW do ppl buy stuff from amazon down under?? Is shipping / customs - costs and times reasonable?

Although I GUESS I could just fill the extra 5mm crack with a bead of black silicon or something?? What do you guys think? Not too crazy about how a triangle would like on the CBR either... but wanna be done with this
