    Dash Hole Plug?

    Hi Folks,
    I am wanting to remove an old in-dash flasher and plug the hole with something.
    Anyone got any ideas?Something easy to do or ashetically pleasing.I thought about making a cover for the hole and painting it,but was looking for something original looking.
    All ideas welcome!
    Thanks
    Ed

    Check the popular marine catalogs. They make a plastic cover just for what you are talking about. Otherwise, I'm sure you could make something.

    Call a comercial electrical supply house and ask for a 3 piece "Oil tight" or gasketed K.O seal. You will need to know the size of the hole, (2", 2 1/2", 3" ect.) This will plug the hole up and it will be water tight to. It will probably come gray and you can paint it any color you want.
