OMG .... That is so wierd. I lost one myself for my Giro nine (One of the smaller ones). I've been trying to search everywhere. I'm about to call Giro about it if I'm having trouble. I was thinking about buying a beenie and doing away with all the plugs, worse comes to worse.

I think it's a pretty common problem and seems like one Giro should have a solution to (ie. selling a replacement plug). I lost one from my old Giro 9.9. So far they are all in tact in my current one.

I have a Giro 9 too. However, you guys must not be skiing hard enough. I have never, not once, used the plugs.

I think they're still in my boot bag somewhere. I I can find them, I'll sell them to the highest bidder.
