If your R1300GS comes with factory OEM fog lights and you’re installing auxiliary lights, you may want to relocate the original fogs to your lower crash bars. Here’s how:
1. Mounting Brackets
You’ll need two crash-bar light mounts:

2. Extending the Wiring
There are two ways to handle the wiring:
Option A – OEM route
Ask your BMW dealer if they can supply official extension cables for the auxiliary lights.
Option B – DIY route
Cut the OEM harness about 10 cm (~4") back from the plug.
Add extension wire.
Refit the original plugs.
You can use universal extension wire or repurpose a pair of Denali T3 extension harnesses by removing the white plugs:

3. Installation Tips
Only attempt DIY wiring if you’re confident with soldering and heat-shrinking.
Insulate joints carefully to make them waterproof.
Secure wiring neatly away from steering movement, engine heat, and sharp edges.
