Removing shift indicators on XT triggers??

Hello peeps,
I recently replaced my old faulty XTR M970 triggers with some XT M770's without considering space on my bars. Due to the shift indicators I have nowhere to put my fork lock out and my brakes are hardly in the right place.......DOH!
Anyway, can you buy a blanking plate/cover to seal the shifter pod as there are gaping holes in the top if I remove the indicator displays. I race XC so I would like my lockout, I have SID Teams and I think I have to replace the whole damping cartridge to have a leg mounted lockout. Maybe I should have splurged more cash on new XTR's? On the other hand I have been very disappointed with the old shifter (left hand) many a race ruined stuck in the big ring!
Cheers, Tom.

remove the windows and flip them over, the blank covers should be on the back of the removed part. Seen here in the background
