Okay, this is another one of my on the fly, off the wall, strange questions...
The US version of the PCX has stalk turn signals. If you look closely, there is a molded "base" into which that stalk fits, on the rear fender. (Circled in red)
My question is, if one were to remove that stalk, is there a part that goes on that fender to cover up that hole, or would I have to manufacture said part, or even buy another fender that doesn't have that molded base and hole?
I'm wanting to avoid having to buy a fender, but I would like to know if there is something that can cover up that unsightly hole if/when I remove the stalk turn signal, in preparation for adding another turn signal elsewhere... (more to come on that one later)
I'd like to find something suitable to cover that hole, and at least make it look like it wasn't a rigged-up solution.

Re: 2013 parts?
I think you would have to buy a part from a foreign source if you want to make it look like it never was there. HOWEVER....I love that...always another option...I can suggest that you take the panel off, take the turn signal post off of it, and then create a black piece of plastic that will fit within the diameters of the hole, and then I would install side turn signal lights like these.

Re: 2013 parts?
Mel, once again you have superb advice. I do have some 1/16" thick black polystyrene/PETG for use with my vacuum former (that I haven't built yet) and it might make a good cover for that opening.Mel46 wrote:I think you would have to buy a part from a foreign source if you want to make it look like it never was there.

These are the ones I had in mind:

I'm thinking of putting them behind the "PCX 150" emblem on the upper side of the rear panel.
I found what I think is the correct relay for Incandescent-to-LED flashers, (based on a conversation with a great parts guy in Athens, Ga. and a bit of email back and forth with Webike in Japan) and if it works, I'm going to do what dem0nk1d did and put turn signals in the Euro location in the headlight unit. I was going to put DRLs in that location, until I found these: https://www.amazon.com/Goodkssop-Flexib ... ning+light They're going on the "brow" above the headlight unit, just below the edge of the windscreen.
Next up though, is replacing the side reflectors at the front and rear with led side marker running lights... I am having to fabricate a bracket, but it shouldn't be a problem (famous last words...)
