Angel Eyes for CBR250
Angel Eyes for CBR250
I totally want to get the Angel/Demon Eyes for my love CBR250R. I am not sure how it works exactly. I’ve seen it in different colors, and I’ve seen it in blue and red. So, do you switch it back and forth? Or do you have to buy them separately?
I saw this listing on eBay and wanted to know if it has everything I would need or if there are better options out there?

For that spesific model you need to send them a message while making the payment about what colors do you want for the angel eye ring and the HID to be. HOWEVER! Notice that the unit does NOT have the ballast needed for the HID to function so you`d need to purchase that separately, the unit is a universal model so some modification to the original light fixture would be needed, possibly even removing the front glass to fit (glue) this unit to the original reflector as I suspect it will not fit through the original bulb hole, not to mention the problems getting the unit watertight again when refitting the glass, and the possible issues with the legality of this mod where you live.
Not wanting to pee on your idea but it`s a heap of a job to fit something that probably will not work for long (the cheap china CCFL/HID lights are known to start flickering/malfunctioning for as fast as within months from installation)
There are ready units for sale too, I can take a look if I can find them. You have a `12-`14 250R right?
EDIT: did some digging, apparently all of the units sold (at least all I found) seem to be retrofit models so in order to get them fitted you`re looking at removing the glass from the light in order to be able to fit the projector unit in, and most if not all seem to come with a HID xenon bulb, some with a ballast, some without.

Retrofit=.make it fit.
Universal= not specific for anything.
"universal retrofit"= pain in the a$$ and a ton of work!
Think of these generic kits as a "one size fits all" type of thing. They fit poorly most of the time.
