I have a 2015 model with auxiliary spotlights. One of the bulbs has gone and I'm struggling to find details of the replacement required.
Can anyone here advise me please before I have to dismantle the unit and check inside

An update for those ignorant members, like myself.
It is not possible to buy the LED part only as OSRAM no longer supply them. The only option is to purchase a new light and BMW will relieve you of an arm, a leg and both kidneys for this experience.
Looks like the best option may be to try and source one through a breakers yard or from Ebay, or similar.

Re: Spotlight Bulb
From Max BMW Motorcycles parts catalogue,
"Powerful LED auxiliary headlight in die-cast aluminum housing. Safer on the road Modern LED technology: LEDs are long-lasting as to be virtually wear-free, so operation is fault-free and maintenance-free as well. White LEDs emit light of a color very close to that of daylight for differentiated illumination of the road ahead. Diameter approx. 3 in, length approx. 4.3 in. Installation and enabling only by authorized BMW Motorrad dealer."

Also depending on the age of your bike, BMW have changed the spec, the ones on my 1250 are different to the ones I have on my 2015 and look different to the ones shown in the Real OEM parts list.
