Added B&M have hole in steering column

Finished my first winter project....added a B&M shifter in my 72. I now have a hole in my steering column where the indicator was. Anyone have a creative way to cover it or know of a company that sells a plug?

I put a grommet in mine... and stuck my wired microphone for my after market deck in it. (B&M shifter as well)

I'd pull your column and use a little fiberglass from the inside and smooth it with filler and paint. ive removed a lot of shifter nubs , cut them off and filled with fiberglass or epoxy and smoothed them , never knew they were there
