To answer your question, yes, there are in fact halos for the 2GS. A member by the name of Carbon GS has a pair. I'm sure he won't mind if you ask him about it.

Xenon Depot also sells them. Here is the link.

now if one doesn't have stock HID, would there be a problem as far as wiring by going with these halo lights? The K2 website states that they are plug and play. Sorry , lighting and wiring confuse the shhh out of me. are there any pictures of these actually lit up on the GS?

Louiegs400, so you think the ones with green tint are better then the ones with halos? also does the green tint effect the output color of the lights or anything like that?
