Default Handlebar Mitts

Was thinking of getting some heated bike ware for the wife and I both,but no more than we would use it,it is not really economical. So I am looking into some handlebar mitts. I saw some by Ducks Unlimited for $25 but it does not look like they have slots in them to accommodate the mirrows or the throttle cables. I was wondering if anyone out there is using something like this on thier bike?

I did see a friends bike with the Ducks Unlimited brand on the bars,I just did not see how the mirrors came through. The Hippo hands look great too but of course I am looking for the least expensive pair. I don't care about the look,as long as my hands are warm,and they will only be on for a few months anyway,another reason for not wanting to drop alot of coin.

I've used the Ducks unlimited ones. There's a lot of air leaks you have to plug. Over all they help a lot but look dorky.

I'd look at these if you want something temporary/removable. http://www.aerostich.com/aerostich-warm-wrap-grips.html
You can get a cigarette adapter to the SAE connection and plug 'em right in your fairing. You can get a thermostat control if you want, but its not a necessity. I used a set on my old RK for years, worked great.
