Anyone have any suggestions as to where i can get a new turn indicator
light for my 580i?  I've tried a couple on-line sources with no luck.

A good brick and mortar auto parts house should have the bulb,
otherwise the BMW dealer.

I neglected to mention this is for an '81.  The lense part is what i
need, already got the bulb.

Start searching the boneyards and Ebay.

I've never heard of a 580i, so I can't even begin to advise you.  An
'81 5-series should be a 528 or 530/533/535 maybe?  I don't think that
a 545 was ever made, the turbo engine was limited to the 7er as I
recall, and not introduced until the mid-80s (I may be mistaken on
some of the finer details, I'm going on memory here)

Did you try a dealer?  I am really amazed at how many parts for the old
5-series cars are still available from dealer inventory.

That said, there is an excellent BMW junkyard down in Virginia Beach, VA.
for such things, if you can live with a used one.  Apt to be kind of brittle
though.

Did you call Bavarian Autosport?  Ignore the website, use the phone and ask
them.
