I don't know if there are any kits that don't require you to do something, i.e., cut a piece of rubber (me), or hit a Kawasaki bulb adapter with a hammer (ViperByte).

So, contact them and ask for a copy of the installation instructions for the Kawasaki Ninja 250 2008+ and see how "Plug and Play" it is. They talk about a smaller ballast. OK, well you can't see the ballast once the skins are back on. If you're pressed for space or you don't want to cut a $2 piece of rubber, just do like some others have done and don't cut the rubber. Don't put it back on!

If you're trying to save money, that's a good thing. That's how I found the kit that this DIY is built on. I didn't want to pay $130 or $199 or pick another price over $70.

If mine only lasts 1 year, then I will just buy another. Let's see 2x70=$140.

Good luck on your quest for a "Plug and Play" HID. I'm sure your install will be quicker than GrandMaster's.

Come on in, the water's fine!
