They mount to the brackets that slide on the forks to hold the headlight brackets

When I read "weird request", I thought you were going to ask for pics of a furry on a GS...

But yeah the turn signals mount to the headlight brackets. My goofy brackets for mounting an F headlight are in the way, but you should be able to get an idea from this pic

Also, since it's late and I'm not doing anything fun, I'm going to answer the question I imagined you were going to ask too.
It's not a GS, but it's as good as I can find.

The normal headlight brackets on the E version have little tabs on them with holes in them for the signals. Just get some aluminum and bolt them up wherever they'll fit.
