Default Fairing Mirror Holes

I installed new bars, and consequently needed to ditch the fairing mirrors for standard mirrors. Now I have these ugly holes where they were located. I can usually find solutions to problems, but not in this case. Any suggestions short of installing a new inner fairing? Pasties are out too ;-)

They sell the basic plugs on Amazon. I found something better though... Kuryaken has some cool ones. I put these on my 2018 Black SGS. https://www.kuryakyn.com/products/49...oaAvE3EALw_wcB

They come in two colors, and they have some other styles as well.

I was thinking of putting a set of flush mount tweeter speakers.

Both good ideas, but won't work on my 2000 FLHTC. It does give me a better idea of what to search for though, and I thank you for that!

I thought of this as well, and may do that. I'm installing a new stereo system this weekend, so I was waiting to see if I need them.

Learning here that they're called plugs sent me in the right direction. I just ordered some $20 cheapies that will make it less ugly for now. Thanks guys!
