The present invention provides a stand-alone handlebar localisation grip, for example an aftermarket handlebar attachment piece, that can replace a conventional handlebar grip of a vehicle, such as a bike. As such, the handlebar localisation grip can be installed in a durable manner without requiring modifications of the vehicle itself. The handlebar localisation grip comprises a handlebar grip, at least one signalling module, configured to provide an optical vehicle localisation signal, a communication module, configured to receive and/or send wireless commands from/to an external device, and a control module, configured to activate the first signalling module. An embodiment of the invention also provides an input module, which allows for control of an external device, such as the controlling of music that is played by a mobile phone. The invention further provides a vehicle comprising two handlebar localisation grips, configured for automatic turn indication. As such, the handlebar localisation grip contributes to an improved traffic safety, since a user does not need to take his hands from the handlebar to control the external device or to activate the turn indication.
