I haven't heard of anybody using these yet, but post a pic, and take a measure of how much too short the stalk is and maybe we can figure something out....

Those are nice. Are they specifically designed for the '08-'10 250r? Also did they come with a electronic flasher unit or diodes made for LED"S? From what I've heard there are only a couple of flush mount units made for the 250r that do not require some modification (especially LED'S) and they are expensive.
I've seen a flush mount done with the LP USA FLUSH MOUNT IV TURN SIGNAL CLEAR 122-9737 with minimal modification (reshaping) of the light housing.

Blueghost,

Are those the factory fronts that you have modified? If so do u have a DIY for it? Cause I've seen one somewhere and forgot 2 bookmark it and can't find it now. Cause that is how I'm going 2 do mine.

Those aren't mine. I still have stock ones with tinted lenses.

that is the one with the plastic nut and washer in the back right?? well i had the same problem...its not long enough to reach the back....so i just took a saw and saw the part where its stickin out in the back of ur fairing? and change the washer to a bigger one....hey it works...

And by the way when you first install it, did the light just stay bright? Not blinkin? I had that problem and went to kragen/autozone/even my local bike repair shop to look for a LED relay, but they dont have it....but the guy who work at kragen( who also own a bike) told me to buy the LED resister?? its a square tube thingy, the size of ur pinky.......and installed that and it worked
