I had the HD forwards, and they came with 2 plugs one black, one chrome. I used that.

Your forward control kit should come with what you need. Mine did.

Cover for the original shift shaft lever hole
I used a chrome carriage bolt http://www.chromebolt.com/51618-x-134-chrome-carriage-bolt-p-845.html, and put a two inch piece of rubber hose on the threads then added some shrink sleeving on the hose to get a nice snug press fit into the empty shaft hole. If you have a black primary: Paint a unplated carriage bolt. Aluminum cover: Scotch brite a chrome carriage bolt. (https://www.hdforums.com/forum/4035128-post10.html)
