To mount the LED headlight on the BMW R1200GS, start by removing the analogue headlight. Unscrew the large bolt located on the side of the headlight.

Simply disconnect the connectors and it will come off. Remove the mounting plate, which will be used for the new headlight. Prices for LED headlights vary widely.

On e-commerce platforms, they range from £119.00 to £210.00. In between, there are many options. Now, place the new headlight in position using the mounting plate from the old one, reconnect all the electrical connectors, and refit the two bolts on the side flanges.
