I mounted the oem style HD mirror that is found on all the non-bagger bikes. For plugs I went to Ace Hardware and bought little plastic plugs. They matched the fairing perfectly.
Yes, this would be your least expensive option. They are also used on Road Kings so they would work fine. You could probably pick up a pair of take-offs for the cost of shipping.
Just curious what is prompting you to swap out the fairing mount mirrors, did you not like them?
I was considering going to fairing mounts on my Limited, maybe someone who's had both can give some insight??
Thanks, guys. After reading your replies, I checked out the Harley tribal mirrors. I've got a Willie G skull theme started anyway, so I ordered these from the MOCO. I think they'll look good. And I'm going to check out BZB123's idea on using the old holes to mount a GPS. Thanks for your help!

I like the fairing mount mirrors (check out my signature), but the 12" apes I'm having put on will block them. On your limited, they may just work. Let me know if you want my old ones.
Thanks, bzb123. I've got an XM satellite receiver mounted on the left handlebar, and a Garmin mounted in the center, in front of my windshield bag. I could easily see the Garmin on the right side, using a setup like yours. Thanks again for the info.
Got the bike back Saturday, put the Willie G mirrors on that evening. thought I would share a picture. The mirrors look great, I think, but the 12" apes definitely changed the profile of the front of the Street Glide.
