How to remove CustomView from UIBarButtonItem?

I'm wanting to remove a image from a uibarbuttonitem and take it back to the default button style. The code I'm using to set the customview for the baritem is:

UIButton *backButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
    backButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 79, 29.0);
    [backButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"imagehere.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

    [self.myItem initWithCustomView:backButton];

So what I'm asking is how can I remove the backButton CustomView and take it back to my default style? Thanks.

Simply remove it by 

self.myItem =  nil;

First off, [self.myItem initWithCustomView:backButton] is wrong. You should always be doing something like self.myItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backButton].

It does not seem that you can change the type of the UIBarButtonItem; when I tried assigning nil to the customView property in a test app just now it screwed up the whole toolbar. Your best bet would be to just create a new UIBarButtonItem and reset the toolbars items array.
