Default Fairing Switch Plugs/Caps

Hey guys,

My apologies if this is answered out there somewhere but for the life of me I can't find an answer or a product online that helps me out. I purchased a new inner fairing off of CL for $50 that I'm having painted to replace the old beat up one on a "new to me" retired '08 Police Electra Glide.

What I'm looking for is a cap or simple plug to fill the empty switch holes in the lower fairing. For reference I've attached a picture with what I'm talking about here. This is the inner fairing that's currently on the bike, but the new one has just standard empty oval holes where the one pictured here has round holes punched in it. I don't have any switches on the bike that need to be mounted in it, so I'm simply looking for something that will fill these holes and clean up the look of the bike.

Any ideas or suggestions welcome. New to Harley's this winter and to a bike with a fairing so looking for any advice anyone has.

If you need any clarification from me just let me know. Also looking for pieces that will fill the empty hole on the gauge space to the left of the stereo if there are any suggestions on that as well.

Thanks again everyone.

Talk to the dealer. On a street glide the left side comes with solid dummy plugs in that area without any round holes in them.

Above is the switch plug, need 3 pcs. 75106-96 is the gauge plug, 1 pc. I would replace the 4 switch plugs and the 2 gauge plugs so they match.
