Default Mounting heated grips to handlebars - how?

Anyone got a picture of how they mounted their heated grips to their handlebars? Mine's currently stuck on with adhesive to the plastic on the left of the speedo but it looks a little bit untidy so I'm looking for a mount.

Are you referring to mounting the control unit? If so you can buy the specific mount if they are Oxfords. Only a few quid and it screws into the bolts on the handlebars.

Right now mines stuck to the bike with adhesive which would have the same effect as velcro, however I'm after a bracket to tidy it up a little bit.

I bought that bracket already from Ebay! But I couldn't find anywhere to bolt it onto. Are you using it? Could you take a picture of it please? If you're too busy then don't worry about it

I have sold the bike that had Hot grips fitted, but here is a shot of the 10mm bolt, on the nearside control unit of the handlebars. The bolt is in the centre of the screen. Don't over tighten the bolt as it bends the bracket!

Hope that helps.
