Hey there. I replaced my factory stalk mirrors with some CRG barends. My question is about the screw sockets remaining. Does the firebolt have them plugged with a factory screw, or does it use different control mounts that are socket-less? Looking for a solution to eliminate the obvious...and don't say put the stockers back in. TIA

Tommy k- you can buy plastic hole plugs at any hardware store for about 10 cents each.I got mine at Ace Hardware.You can't tell there was ever a hole there!

If the holes are the same as the XB9SX, you can use (2) Nissan push fasteners from Lowe's. Much less than a dollar for both. They are located near the screws, nuts, and bolts.

If you want the dealer parts, they only list the right side one, just get two of them. Me and the parts guy spent a bit of time head scratching looking for the left one... which does not exist.

Sounds like Lowes might be easier though.

Just an update. There happened to be a Firebolt at my dealer, and an '06 parts catalog. The plastic plugs are
PN:N0001.B
and were under a buck. Just an FYI.
