Default Mid controls shaft

Have forward controls and removed the shaft for the mids. No problem replacing the inspection cover on the primary cover. Is there a plug available for the backside or do you have to scrounge?

Go to your local hardware and scrounge, when you find the right one silicone that puppy in.

I used a chrome button head bolt inserted in a fuel line to fill the shaft hole.
