Bar end plugs

I've just fitted some bar ends on my hybrid bike. However the plugs at the end of my bars are now too big. Can anyone point me in the right direction for some small plugs that would fit next to bar ends?

I need approx 22mm ends. The ones that came with the bike are 30mm.

Pics below to help you understand what I'm on about!

    If you have some 1 Euro coins, then you can loosen the clamp, insert coin and retighten and the coin will pinch nicely into place!

    Otherwise you need the style of plug where the end is the same 22mm (or slightly smaller) as the bar OD, I've seen some but never had to buy any.

    Not an answer to your question but I think you'll find using the end bars much more comfortable if you change them around so that the allen bolt head is underneath the bar.
