I know that I am stubborn, but I can’t do it any more.
Right front turn signal is gone.
I can’t find another one. Unobtanium.
I wanted to keep everything stock.
Any aftermarket front turn signals that anyone is aware of that fits the GL1500 Standards?

These don't look OEM for me.  Most probably aftermarket or Hog lights. No two filament bulb wiring for running lights also. -mike- Edit: Found it. Harley Touring Electra Glide 01-17 turn signal lights. That's probably the reason why the donor Valkyrie was scrapped.. After mounting these lights the Fat Lady started leaking oil and run scrappy for no reasons found...

After looking at them again you're probably right.

The 3 wire type is needed. Gotta keep an eye on eBay. This is one of many shown today. It appears to be painted black. Not pretty, but might get you on the road. https://www.ebay.com/itm/274738237857?itmmeta=01HX1PE93TYCDXCYDZT28HQ5YP&hash=item3ff7acd1a1:g:RCQAAOSwsUFgYf2w&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4EO3QhgOBw68OZEms75xundW5OCq5a8IpYMpa%2Bm5a5X8shg48lC6UhGy6vndP65CEdEO39PKVwDnqBGcUwx5M4C8i%2BU8trnIox5aQJ2QPCYENPVwRXCU%2FvyzAdQeI89VRjfksc82qkN1auU8Um4U4L6e5cBx8FaBXZJJ0C1OD2bsjXeqes3E7snc8CccZc1x5f%2FcyDOeJrrQegwdI1X2TO0rcMgOySqhV5FPfymAiBTxlaYWSH29sK7hFkl3VZ6DPlW2BNGiNF%2BlUyhp%2BTNwI3VLToRsFNBQqKUrwM9%2BYBmy%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR46SubboYwAll there are no front, rear, right or left lenses. Different years lenses that mount with either one screw, or two, depending on the housing. Looking at my bike, it appears the housing for a left rear and a right front are the same, they just use a different socket and wires that you may be able to change out.

I noticed the same thing. I cobbled a right rear by swapping out the guts with the one I replaced. It will do until I get the new setup. Only problem is the lens retention screw is on top! I’ll save the housing for future use.

Yes. It appears a left rear housing mounted upside down and backwards becomes a right front.

Not just appears - is, in my instance! A temporary solution until I get the one I just ordered.
To be very clear, to use a rear indicator on the front, you have to replace the two-wire guts of the rear signal with the three-wire of the front. This is what I did, and it works just fine for now. If I had a left rear indicator, I could have just swapped out the guts and used it as-is, and would have been just fine.
The rear indicators are still available new, but you have to do some surgery before using them on the front, because of the three-wire setup on the front.

I have a set of HD lights on my interstate. I used the white driving bulbs option that changes to amber as turning signals too. https://postimg.cc/gallery/Y7fQMV7B

Cool turn signal.lights. Looking great and won't get hot as the OEM filament types. And boy, these LED headlights are bright for sure! What a shame these are not street legal over here. A friend of mine rebuilds an Interstate at the moment and he would love that, too!

That is interesting. One of the lights looks like it would work - even has the three wires. However, the drop-down menu has two options: left REAR and right REAR.
The rear indicators have two wires, not three, so it looks like either it is the wrong stock photo, or the wrong description(s).
It always makes me nervous when I see stuff like that.

*Update*
I received my new-to-me right front turn signal on Tuesday evening, put it on last night (Wednesday evening), and rode my Valk to work this morning - fully functional!
All told, it took me 7 minutes, start to finish.
Thanks to all who helped me!
