I had used the black plugs they sell at pep boys for like a dollar and i painted them up, But i had a buddy use clear tape, the kind you use for closing big boxes, and it looked a lot nicer then what i did.

You can go to lowes and pick up some Hilman nylon plugs in 5/16 and 3/8.

5/16 is tiny, what would I use that for?

The two front holes are 5/16 and the two back ones are 3/8. Dont ask me why ford had two different size holes, but they did.

Well I just fit 3/8 in all holes, not sure if the previous owner made them bigger...
