I would like to replace the originals with some LP's and it seems or looks like them plugs are glued in the tubes? or are they. Maybe a pair of chanel locks ? dunno, anyone else replace there's |

I'd recommend Vise grips. Dave |

Channel locks will pull them right out. I ran Ken Sean black bar ends for a while, they worked good until I put the aluminum motocross bars on I them put a set of small CF mirrors on it. |

The ones on my 12R weren't glued it,just sorta stuck in. Get some pliers or channel locks and pull them out, you can probably do it without scratching them... Kevin |

Pliers... grab... wiggle... and pull... come right out without damage... I pulled mine for bar end mirrors. |

Use a small flat-blade screwdriver and pry at the inside edge where the plug goes into the handlebar, then you can wiggle it loose. Piece of cake! |

Jack... Found them locally (Kansas City) after locating them via internet and was about to order them. Look at my profile... they are Napoleon. Did a search for "napoleon bar end mirrors" and found them a couple of places. I like them, stable installation, good field of view, and good looking too. |

Go to a mountain bike shop and buy one there. I've been running mine for months with no problem. Costs 13.00 dollars. Couldn't see paying 60+ for 1 mirror!!!! Bought mine at R.E.I. |
