Throttle grip removal

Anyone have any experience opening up the throttle grip housing? Looks like some type of non removable screw was used. I have a set of grips and want to try to swap them in but not sure about those screws.

why do you have to open the throttle assembly to fit grips?
I've never had to do that on any bike
opening the throttle assembly will cause problems

Its the whole assembly similar to the Scout. on the throttle side you replace the whole throttle tube with the style I am looking to replace them with.

I know they do not how ever there are photos with the grips installed. I am trying to open the housing so I can see if the part would be compatible but the screws used to assemble the housing are something I've never seen before

Don’t open the housing. Leave the throttle tube on please.

From what I see, remove the existing grips, slide these on, and install the lock-ring. These work very similar to modern mountain bike grips.

(they didn’t come with a leaflet or instructions?)

edit: apparently Im wrong…
