Thank you!
You can get rubber and plastic plugs at a good hardware store - not necessarily a big box store, but a regular hardware store that has a wide variety of fasteners and little parts. That's where I got some for my bike. I wasn't exactly sure of the size, but they're so cheap I just bought a variety.
Someone above mentioned McMaster Carr - also a great source, but local hardware stores often have the same sort of stuff. On Mc-C search for "panel plug"
