The CRGs don't come with the mirror hole plugs unless you buy them from American Sport Bike. We put them in the box when we receive them from CRG. But that is for the Lightnings and Ulys and such on the threaded handlebar perches.

The original post in this thread was referring to the mirror mount location on a firebolt, not the perches on a lightning. Someone already posted a link to the Mirror Block off plates, that is a clean solution. I've also seen plain bolts, spikes, and even just a couple tie wraps.

They look good, but suck. Can't really see them from the front, visible @ 45* or more. Got them from eBay:
