Hey folks,
I recently removed my spare tire and carrier to give the back a cleaner look. I am looking for grommets or something that will properly (and cleanly) cover the holes left by the wiring and the tire bumpers. Do any of you have any suggestions for something cheap that got the job done?
For reference, the holes look like this:

I'll be doing the same thing in a month or so when my A to Z Bumper is done. Please report back what you find.

Will do. I'm heading over to Auto Zone and ACE hardware after work to see if I can't find something that fits. The only thing I turned up on the web is a $22 "UFO" from Vector off-road (http://www.vectoroffroad.com/u…sa0v9400bjkjsm5lfdo6jnvf3) but I'm sure there is a cheaper alternative out there. Also, that still leaves the hole from the wiring harness open.

McMaster-Carr:
I would think you could find something that will fit.
You'd have a lot of extra's, but still might be cheaper.

Lowes sells those same plugs in the hardware section in the drawers.

Order a couple of Jeep "Trail Rated" badges, like on the side of your Jeep. Don't know what they cost but knowing Chrysler, you'll need a loan!!

I used the plastic plugs like Keith posted and they look just fine.

Thanks Keith and Vin, the plugs you suggested worked perfect.

Nice.
