Replace object with Maya 2008

Hi
I am working with Maya 2008 and i was wondering if there is a way to replace objects in the scene with different object fast. Basically i have around 120 triangles(Globe glass), they all the same objects, i want to replace the Glass with a different color Glass and texture that i made but i dont want to start placing 120 object again. If someone knows something say something.
- all the objects are the same shape and size,
- just want to replace all the 120 object with new object(the same size and same shape, it is basically copy one of the object) without moving the 120 object around,

I tried tool/script swapper(from highend3d) , It works, the script replace the new object with the target object , but the problem is after done it the objects move out of the position to 0 right in the middle of grid, like snap it to grid, it bit hard when you have globe round shape and the glasses moved around,

I need help in easy way

thanks
